The Sun (New True Books: Space (Paperback))
by Christine Taylor Butler

No other body in the solar system is as important as the sun. It provides a central point for the planets to orbit around, and its warmth and light are integral to the survival of Earths life forms. Readers will discover what this incredible star is made of, why it burns so bright, and what would happen if it disappeared. They will also find out how scientists study the sun and what we are still trying to learn about it.
