Throughout our solar system, chunks of ice, gas, and dust fly around in the form of comets. This engaging book introduces readers to the wonders of comets: their size and shape, their formation, and how they orbit the sun. Each of the main parts of the comet is explained using simple vocabulary as well as full-color photographs. Fast facts increase readability and interest, while a fun activity encourages readers to use their new knowledge in an entertaining way. This book supports English Language Arts standards and also correlates directly with Next Generation Science Standards.

Excerpt from The Story of the Stars: Simply Told for General Readers When invited to write this little book, I was asked so to shape it that it should be a concise but readable outline of that branch of knowledge which one associates with the expression the "Starry Heavens" liberally interpreted. I was to cater for those rapidly growing thousands of men and women of all ranks who are manifesting in these closing years of the nineteenth century in so many ways and in so many places an interest in the facts and truths of Nature and Physical Science. The task thus imposed upon me was a very congenial one, and I gladly undertook it. How far I have succeeded in presenting my facts in a bright and cheery spirit others must determine. But I would ask it to be understood that I have dealt with facts rather than fancies. There are too many of the former available for a writer on astronomy to make it worth while to waste space in dealing with the latter. This volume will shortly be followed by another in the same unconventional style entitled, "The Story of the Solar System; or, The Sun, Planets, and Comets popularly described."
