How to Make a Planet is full of interesting facts about the earth and how it was made. The book is presented and in a fun and engaging way with lots of great illustrations. How To Make a Planet uses many large scientific terms but does a pretty good job explaining them. I think for the most part the majority of this will be over most kids heads but little boys tend to love non-fiction and facts and they will certainly learn a few new things from How to Make a Planet. I`m sure this book would appeal to many young boys probably between the age of 8 and 11.
