A Gr 1-2 -These titles, which were originally published in 2005, all feature an updated boilerplate map of the planets (except in Mars , where Plutos orbit is still visible) but only Pluto has undergone enough other revision to consider as a replacement. For libraries that dont own them already, however, they make appealing choices for their colorful layouts, simple writing, and emergent-reader-friendly facts.
