When Is a Planet Not a Planet?: The Story of Pluto Audiobook (Unabridged)

" short, sweet, and explains what the fuss was all about. Hail Pluto, so sorry you lost your place in the pantheon of planets! "

" Needed a book to help me understand why Pluto got kicked out of the Planet club. This is a good book and explains this very well. "

" We listened to this great little book which discusses the history of studying planets, the old definition of a planet and the new definitions of bodies that orbit our Sun (and other suns). Very informative! "

" Informative book, beautiful illustrations, would recommend. "

" A cute little non-fiction book for kids on why Pluto is not a planet. The book walks readers through the history of planets and their discoveries until getting to the heart of the matter. Full of facts and an easy read, this is something that I think all kids would enjoy. "

" I was impressed with how clearly written this was and it was entertaing. It clearly defined concepts and had good images. I learned a lot about Pluto actually. "

" read it for school but loved it =) "

" A very good, concise explanation of the solar system. Not exactly what I was expecting (which was a heavier focus on Pluto itself), but still a good book for kids interested in space (which is every kid, as far as I know). "

" A nice, brief, junior-high-aged review of general astronomy and its history. As an adult, some of the definitions and repetitive "interesting fact" comments got a little annoying. I learned several things including the reality that Pluto is no longer a planet. "

" This book gives a lot of detail about the history of astronomical discoveries with beautiful pictures. "
