I always wanted to help the children in some poor places. Last summer, my dream came true. I joined a club of volunteers* and drove to a small village in the west of China to build a library at a primary school.
After a three-hour ride, we got there. The school was poor, and we had to choose a small room as the library. Our job was to move hundreds of books into the room, put them on the shelves* and clean the small tables and chairs in the room.
I soon found the work wasn’t interesting at all. We carried the books from the cars to the room during that morning. We all felt bored and tired. But in the afternoon, many students came to borrow books from the “library” and ran back to their classroom to read. The students said that they never saw so many books and thanked us again and again.
How happy I was to hear that! It only took us one day to build the library, but it will make a difference to these children’s lives.

The solar system has eight planets. The planets are Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. The Planets are all round, like balls. The planets all go around the sun.
Mercury is closest to the sun. It is very hot on Mercury. The planets that are far away from the sun are very cold. Venus is between Mercury and the Earth. It is sometimes called Earth’s “sister planet” because they have almost the same size and shape. The Earth is the planet where we live. From space, the Earth looks blue because it has so much water. Jupiter is the largest planet in our solar system. Saturn is known for having rings around it. Uranus was the first planet discovered with a telescope*. We can see Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn with our eyes, however to see Uranus, we need a telescope. Neptune is the 8th planet in our solar system. The planet is farthest from the sun.
Probes* go into space and take pictures of the planets. We learn a lot from these pictures. If you could send a probe to any planet, where would you send it?
