Magic School Bus: Lost in the Solar System

"My kids love this series of books! Very educational and fun to read. They love that Ms. Frizzle is so quirky. Both my son and daughter love this book, and enjoyed learning all about space. This book contains a lot of interesting facts about space, written in language that children can easily understand. Excellent illustrations to accompany the text."

Lost in the Solar System (The Magic School Bus #4)

"A wonderful read from my childhood, one I’d certainly suggest for other youngsters. Whilst it is not my all-time favourite childhood read I can still recall all the details of this one meaning it certainly left a lasting impression upon my young mind. And isn’t that what we want with children’s books, for them to leave a positive lasting impression?"

Julie (3/5)

Great read

"Lost in the Solar System is another great learning tool for young kids. This book explores the solar system. The Magic School Bus series are educational and fun at the same time. I like to pair them with the TV episode for an all encompassing learning experience."

Lost in the Solar System (The Magic School Bus, #4)

"The book is accurate and authentic in conveying factual, documented material. There is a lot of factual information in the book. For example, there is a chart of the planets, how big across they are, how long one rotation is, how long one year is, how far from the sun it is, how many known moons there is and if they have rings. The information is presented in an organized way through the fact that the story is taking us through a virtual tour in the order they are traveling through space. The format and design of the book is most definitely appealing to children. The pictures are great. There is also little pieces of paper with children writing their homework assignments and such on. So, children can relate to the fact that children are actually learning about the stuff that they are reading about in the book. Therefore, this will be appealing to them. Lastly, the author's writing style is clear and regenerate enthusiasm for the topic. It's almost as if Joanna Cole has taken the role of the teacher, Ms. Frizzle, and is teaching the topic to her students. By also showing the students assignments throughout the book shows enthusiasm of the students learning and therefore displays the authors enthusiasm of the topic."
