American spelling - By: DamianR, 15 May 2008 
Not good for young readers in the UK.
American book - so color not colour.
Otherwise OK
informative and entertaining - By: Binka, 22 Apr 2006 
I bought this book for my 4year old as her class were "doing space" at school. She took it into school one day & the teacher read it to the whole class who apparantly alll enjoyed it. My daughter certainly loves it & its helped her rememeber things about the different planets.
A great book - good fun and NOT just for children! - By: BC-Cuddington, 16 Jun 2004 On the face of it this book is best suited to children up to 7 years old... but it reallly has a lot to offer ANYONE who doesn't know what the nine planets are & where they are in relation to the sun! My son (almost 8) found it a great read, although he did comment that it wasn't 'exactly' like a 'proper' Dr Seuss... almost though... he still loves it.
I then took it into work where it was well received & two colleagues had learned their planets by the end of lunchtime. Great fun! I'd also recommend 'Inside Your Outside', also by Tish Rabe, we loved it
Ideal for introducing a 4 or 5 year old to the solar system - By: , 29 Jun 2001 I bought this book in the Washington Space Museum - when my 4 year old twins took it to school it became one of the main books used that term to introduce the reception class (age 4/5) to space & the solar system. It's great fun, lots of rhyming, & now my children can recognise each of the planets & tell you the names of the planets in order (Malllory Valerie Ellery Meetzas Just Sold Us Nine-hundred-and-ninety-nine Pizzas!) I'm going to buy a second copy for the school so we can get ours back!
