The sun provides us with the light and energy we need to survive.

It also serves as the center of our solar system, with its gravitational pull keeping the planets in orbit. But what exactly is the sun? Readers (Grades 3-5) will explore how the sun was formed, what it is made of, and how its energy travels to Earth and the other planets of the solar system.
