Bestselling author Lynn Brunelle brings young star lovers up close and personal with the constellations, under the night sky or right in their room, any time of the year. Take this book outside and use the built-in star wheel cover to find constellations in the sky. Keep it inside and use the included pop-up star map to turn any room into a planetarium by projecting constellations onto the wall or ceiling. Whether you have a front yard or a fire escape, a small room or a big one, the whole sky is yours to explore. Stuffed with science cover to cover, this is the perfect first book of astronomy. Kids will learn what star is, the life span of a star, light years, how to find north, and everything else about the night sky. Packed with adventure, readers will discover over 28 stories of the stars--from Andromena, who's tied to the rock as a sacrifice to Cetus, the sea monster--to the heroic tales of Hercules, Persues, Pegsus, Orion, all 12 constellations from the zodiac, the Greek gods, and classic favorites like Ursa Major and Ursa minor, AKA the Big and Little Dipper.
