Critics Review
The saturated colors of pop art marry with swirling watercolors and sharp geometric shapes in this picture book that’s perfect for budding scientists. An exoplanet is any planet that is outside our solar system; the book explores the four main types: gas giant, Neptunian, super-Earth, and terrestrial, as well as concepts such as how they are discovered and if any of them could support life. The colors will entrance younger readers, while a glossary provides explanations of difficult terms for the more experienced.
