Frogs

First frogs turn in to baby tadpoles.  Then they grow when they eat.  Then when they’re done with tadpoles, they turn in to kids.  Then when they’re done with kids, they turn in to adults.  That’s how frogs grow. The end.

The Planets

Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun and the eighth largest.  It is many ways similar to the moon because its surface is cratered and very old.

Venus is close to earth.  Its clouds reflect sunlight so it appears to be the brightest planet in the sky.

Earth is an ocean planet, home of water and life.  It is the third planet from the sun.

Mars is a cold, desert world.  It is half the diameter of Earth and has the same amount of dry land like Earth.

Jupiter is the most massive planet in our Solar System with four large moons.

Saturn is made mostly of hydrogen and helium.  It is the sixth planet from the Sun.

Uranus is the seventh planet from the Sun.  It is one of the two ice giants of the outer solar system.

Neptune is the ice giant.  Neptune was the first planet located through observation in the sky.

Pluto is much smaller than any of the official planets and is now known as a “dwarf planet.”
