Imagine this: scientists have predicted that a meteorite will hit Earth in 2020. It will cause a lot of damage. If this really were to happen, what could we do? Amateur astronomer David Hill explores the planets and moons of our solar system to find out if there's anywhere else quite like Earth. This text is part of a guided reading series of 96 chapter books for children aged seven to 11. With 24 chapter books at each year level (12 fiction and 12 nonfiction) the "Collins Skyracer" series provides a wide range of action-packed books to enthuse and motivate. Ever wanted to find out what it's like to live in the Antarctic? To compete in a race across the harsh desert? To jump from a plane and break a record? Or maybe you love reading traditional tales, science fiction or graphic novels? Whatever your guided reading groups like to read about, "Skyracer" should have books for you.
This is Book 16 in the Skyracer Yellow Series. See all Skyracer Yellow books here.
