My son is a little too young for this book, he alreadt tore one of the flaps, so I just read it to him while he's playing and not focused on it yet. I like that it is educational and gives fun facts about our sun. It does it in the form of the lift and see flaps. I can't wait till he's a little older and can truly enjoy this book. I am giving it a 5 star because of the cute illustrations, the interesting facts about our sun, that I kinda forgot from my school days, and lovely illustrations.

Miss 4 has a long running interest in the solar system and this highly visual and informative book was great!

Miss 4 and I like to explore different books and authors at the library, sometimes around particular topics or themes. We try to get different ones out every week or so; it's fun for both of us to have the variety and to look at a mix of new & favourite authors.

Fiksut faktat -sarjaan tullut lisäosa Miksi aurinko paistaa? kertoo hivenen samoja faktoja kuin sarjassa aiemmin ilmestyneet osat. Silti tämä kirja on raikas tuulahdus lasten tietokirjojen joukossa; mukava kuvitus, avattavat luukut ja lapsia askarruttaviin kysymyksiin vastausten saaminen motivoivat lukemaan kirjaa yhä uudelleen ja uudelleen.
