My Book About Space

We all live on Earth. It is like
a big, round ball. And it is
spinning. This is hard to
believe because we do not
feel any motion. Everything
stays in place because the
Earth pulls everything to
itself. This pull is called
GRAVITY. The Earth always
spins at the same speed
(about 1000 miles per hour!).
The Earth spins around one
time, or makes one full
rotation, in 24 hours.
Light from the sun falls on one
half of the spinning Earth. This
half has DAY. The other, darker
half has NIGHT. As the Earth
spins, we move through the
light, into the darkness, and
back again. This makes day and
night. Half of the Earth is always
in the light and half of the Earth
is always in the dark. The Earth
is always spinning and that is
why it is always changing.
