Is There Life in Outer Space: Let's Read and Find out (Let's-Read-And-Find-Out Science: Stage 1 (Paperback)) Book

Are there furry creatures on the moon? Or Martians who ride spaceships to Earth? Today we know Martians don't exist, but we also know that plants and animals may live far beyond our solar system. Franklyn M. Branley's fascinating text and Edward Miller's zany illustrations tap into kids' curiosity to give a dazzling tour of life out among the stars. Updated with new photos of Mars and a "Find Out More" page full of hands-on activities.`This is a lighthearted yet serious introduction to the concept of life on other planets. It stretches the imagination by asking questions about life off Earth and then attempts to answer them. Whimsically illustrated descriptions of old theories give a light touch to some pretty odd ideas. . . . In stark contrast to these colorful drawings are the black-and-white photographs of astronauts and the surfaces of the moon and Mars showing the absolute lack of life so far uncovered.' —SLJ.
