The organization of this book wasn't very good. The pages on the northern and southern hemispheres of Mars weren't next to each other. This helped cause confusion when a comparison was apparently made without naming if it was in reference to the other hemisphere. Why the differences existed or any theories about it weren't given, causing confusion and questions. That one hemisphere's plains were younger but had a more complex history confused basically everyone. Other organizational choices left kids in our group, and some adults, confused. A statement about what the core of Mars is not left practically everyone confused about what the core was or even what other possibilities exist. This tidbit is repeated verbatim later in the book, which is particularly unacceptable in a book this short. Everyone, kids and adults, asked what the height was of the tallest mountain in the solar system because that piece of the information wasn't included. The word 'the' was left out at least once. Mars wasn't capitalized at least once. There's a beginning parenthesis mark but no end one.There were some big vocabulary words that weren't defined. No one, not the adults or the kids, walked away from this book feeling they'd explored Mars, only that they'd explored confusion. I can't recommend this because it isn't organized well, isn't written well and doesn't include important information to increase understanding. I received this book at a free or discounted rate in exchange for my honest review.
