Our Solar System by Stacy McAnulty and Stevie Lewis - ESSENTIAL

Our Solar System: A Stellar Neighborhood
by Stacy McAnulty, illustrated by Stevie Lewis
. NON-FICTION, PICTURE BOOK Henry Holt (Macmillan), 2025 $19. 9781250813473 

BUYING ADVISORY: EL (K-3), EL - ESSENTIAL 

APPEALS TO: MANY 

Comet, who claims to be both author and illustrator, takes us on a tour of the Solar System, including the sun, the planets and even tells the reader about asteroids, comets and even an oort cloud. 

I hope your library includes all of McAnulty's books about the planets, including purchasing this one - a culmination of all the friendly planets, with bits of cool information about each one. Funny, clever, informational, everything we want in a book about the Solar System. I learned things I didn't know! Stevie Lewis is also the illustrator, so everything matches and complements. Well done!
