Our Stars


This book gives a lot of facts about stars in an interesting manner. Illustrations show the constellations: Leo, Orion, and the Big Dipper. The books explains the North Star and that it is called Polaris. We find out that we can see Venus sometimes before the stars come out. It also covers the planets orbiting around the sun, comets, and meteors. Kids will be interested because of the cartoon-like illustrations and easy to read text.
