Another Venus lover! Earth’s "sister planet" is absolutely fascinating, and close enough that we often see it with our own eyes. If you have ever looked at a very bright star that is low in the sky just as the sun is setting, you were probably looking at Venus!
Jackson, from the school I am visiting later this week, is also interested in Venus. Here’s what he wrote:
Dear Mr. Seymour Simon,
I read your book about Venus. It’s a very interesting book. I never knew Venus was as hot as 900 degrees! I’m so glad that I chose to read this book for my summer reading assignment.
I can’t wait to see you when you visit our school this week.
Thank you,
Jackson D.
I am looking forward to meeting all the students at Cider Mill School this week. See you soon!
