Explore the Planets

Evie and her pet dog, Juno, use their senses to explore the planets in this bright, layered board book which teaches kids all about the solar system!

In this charming and innovative layered board book, Evie and her pet dog Juno visit all the planets, one by one, and tell readers what they found there. Watch them skateboard on bumpy Mercury, do a spot of hoovering on dusty Mars, and hula-hoop round Saturn!

Humorous text and bold, quirky illustrations introduce each of the eight colourful planets. Curved and layered board pages increase in size as you move through the book, developing a child’s hand-eye coordination as they turn the pages.

The final spread shows all of the planets together in order from the sun. Quirky facts coupled with engaging artwork boost pre-schoolers’ imagination and spark an interest in the world around them. This bright, layered board book provides a great first introduction to the solar system.

This book is from the Adventures of Evie and Juno series, which sees our two intrepid explorers travel to different places and environments in innovative layered board books which will help young readers develop hand-eye coordination and teaching them about the world. Also available is Explore Under the Sea, which sees Evie and Juno travel from the beaches to the bottom of the ocean, as they share with readers what they find!
