This informative book of poetry provides information about the planets, the moon, comets, galaxies, constellations and other bodies in the night sky. Starting with three poems about the universe, the galaxy, and the solar system, respectively, the author then goes on to provide a poem for each planet, from Mercury nearest the sun to Pluto, now a dwarf planet. Poems are also provided for comets, constellations, and black holes.I enjoyed the poems in this book, which were much more kid-friendly than long, detailed paragraphs about the different space objects. I particularly liked the one about Pluto, which “was admired…but one day it got fired.” This is a fun way to help kids remember the identifying characteristics of each celestial body
