Packed with real, kid-friendly facts and bright, colorful illustrations, Jupiter! King of the Planets takes curious readers ages 10-12 on a cosmic tour of the largest world in our solar system. It's a colossal ball of swirling gas with a storm bigger than Earth, a family of amazing moons, faint rings, and the strongest storms and magnetism anywhere - and every page is a new discovery.

- Jupiter's colorful stripes, wild winds, and lightning

- Jupiter's faint rings, its record-breaking magnetism, and its dazzling auroras
- How the giant planet's gravity acts like a cosmic shield
- The robot explorers - from Pioneer and Voyager to Galileo, Juno, and the missions on their way now
- Whether life could exist in the hidden oceans of Jupiter's moons
- A fun end-of-book quiz and an easy-to-use glossary
