A new paperback edition of the colorful, fun-filled adventure through the solar system, by the author of the Big Science for Little Minds series.

The perfect picture book to introduce little minds to big ideas!

Planets combines bold, colourful illustrations with jokes and incredible science facts to take young readers on a fun-filled journey across the solar system. On the way they will learn all about the planets, and find out the answers to such important questions as: Why does Venus smell so bad? Why aren't there many birthday parties on Neptune? and What would happen if you tried to eat your dinner on Mars?

Perfect for readers 4 and up, this exciting introduction to some mind-blowing concepts about space is the second book in the Big Science for Little Minds series, which also includes Atoms, Germs, and Brains. John Devolle combines his passion for science with his love of the visual arts to explain some of the big questions of life in an accessible way.

John Devolle studied Fine Art at the University of Westminster and has since run an art gallery in East London, been a graphic designer / art director, and, since 2010, worked as an illustrator on numerous children's books. John currently lives and works in Dublin.
