THE PLAYFUL PLANETS And the Days of The Week

Did you know that the days of the week are named after the planets in many languages?

The Playful Planets and the Days of the Week is the second book in the Playful Planets series. It teaches children the days of the week and the names of the planets in a simple, colourful, and fun way. Some of the French and Spanish day names also get a mention.

Monday is named after the MOON, Saturday after SATURN, Sunday after the SUN, and so on. The month of March is also named after MARS. An index of mythological origins is provided at the beginning of the book.

"I always wanted to be a weekend day, but I guess we can't have it all our own way," moans Marvin, the miserable man in the MOON.

The beautiful and original artwork brings the planets to life in true superhero style.

Ideal for all inquisitive children aged 3-7. Learning can be fun.
