because saturn is so big has rings and so
many moons it is called a system saturn
has 18 moons the rings are made up pieces
of rocks and ice these pieces can be as small
as a pebble or as big as a building saturn’s
rings get their pretty colors because the
sun shines on them from far away sometimes
after it rains on earth we see a rainbow
this is because there are many tiny drops
of water in the air these drops are too small
to fall as rain the sun shines on the tiny
drops and reflects off making our rainbow
saturn's rings are made of dust and ice pieces
the sun reflects off these and makes rainbow
colors too
