[Joan · Rating 5 out of 5]

One of the Space Launch! titles from Weekly Reader for young readers. Diagrams and photographs accompany the interesting text, answering basic questions and providing foundational information for young learners. A glossary follows the text, supporting reader learning and understanding. A strength of the series is the presentation of information in such a way as to capture the young reader’s interest

Young readers investigate discoveries about Mercury, learn about its huge cliffs and crate4rs, and investigate NASA’s “MESSENGER” mission to the planet closest to the sun. Topics in this book include ice on Mercury, finding Mercury, what can we see, missions to Mercury, Mercury discoveries, future exploration, and much, much more.

Highly recommended.
