A lyrical narrative voice (the voice of the Milky Way galaxy itself) is augmented by sidebars filled with amazing facts and insights about our galaxy, and by extension, our universe.
Features Mike Taylor’s extraordinary night sky photography and breathtaking NASA images of the births and deaths of stars and galaxies.
Combines a read-aloud bedtime story with accessible, scientifically accurate sidebar features.
The perfect book for a budding stargazer or astronomer.
