This is our favorite of the Swift Walker series - the illustrations of Swift visiting the planets are amazing and this book is PACKED with facts about the planets, and all in a really fun package that draws kids in. (This series would be great for classroom libraries.)

Cute! Swift goes on an awesome adventure to outer space. This book has a good storyline, nice illustrations, and solar system fun facts. Recently, found out about this series and it appears to be popular with African American homeschooling curriculum. 👨🏾‍🚀 🚀

In Swift Walker A Space Adventure,  Swift is "walking over the trees, straight over the clouds, and right into outer space!" As he jumps and flies through outer space, he visits each planet beginning with Mercury and discovers the properties of each as he travels throughout the solar system. As in her other books, she includes additional information at the back of the book that adds the academic spin that is a mainstay throughout all three books.
