Blast off into space with Sadie, Polly, and Joey as they explore the amazing planets of our Solar System! In Pluto’s Guide to the Planets, by Neha M. Roy, kids will learn the order of the planets, discover fascinating space facts, and meet Pluto — the dwarf planet guide leading the adventure.

☀️ Learning the Planets in Order

To help kids remember the planets, Sadie shares a silly sentence:

“My Very Educated Mother Just Served Us Noodles!”

This mnemonic helps children remember the planets in order from the Sun:

  • Mercury
  • Venus
  • Earth
  • Mars
  • Jupiter
  • Saturn
  • Uranus
  • Neptune

Kids can repeat the phrase along with the video for an interactive learning experience!

🌍 Spin for a Day, Circle for a Year

One of the big ideas in this story is how planets move.

Sadie explains it in a simple kid-friendly way:

  • 🌍 Spin for a day
  • ☀️ Circle for a year

Planets spin on an invisible line called an axis, which creates day and night. They also travel around the Sun on a path called an orbit, which creates a year.
