About this ebook

A breathtaking look at the most beautiful of all the planets with its magnificent rings and moons. From School Library Journal: "An introduction to the planet and its major satellites. Despite the strength of the text, it is the color photos that steal the show, highlighting [the] planet’s exotic beauty in much the same way that black-and-white photography accented the moon's starkness. In all, a delightful coupling of sound exposition with dazzling illustrations.” Newly Updated 2012.
