By means of the homogeneous balance principle, a nonlinear transformation to the well known breaking soliton equation with physical interest was given. The original equation was turned into a homogeneity differential equation with this nonlinear transformation. By solving the homogeneity equation via the simplified Hirota method and applying the nonlinear transformation, one soliton, two soliton and three soliton solutions as well as some other types of explicit solutions to the breaking soliton equation were obtained with the assistance of Maple.
