SynopsisChildren eight and up will enjoy this conversational but information-packed introduction to astronomy and stargazing, which includes the achievements of the great scientists, the history of space exploration, the story of our solar system, the myths behind the constellations, and how to navigate the night sky. Whimsical color illustrations on every page and handy definitions and sidebars help engage younger readers and develop their interest. The special star wheel helps locate stars and planets from any location at any time of year. This is the third in Black Dog & Leventhal's successful series including The Story of the Orchestra and A Child's Introduction to Poetry.
A Childs Introduction to the night sky: The Story of the Stars is a great book for both young and old.
This book was for our grandson. He is 9 years old and just loves the book. We had given him his telescope the previous year. We thought this would renew his interest in the stars. He loves to read and now he is able to experiment and share this interest with his mom and dad. Great food for minds both young and old alike
This one of this most beautifully illustrated books I have seen. It is a wonderful, fun filled book for kids and adults.
I am very happy I bought this book.
Thanks.
