Annotation
Though a children's title, this book will appeal to teens and adults
as well for its vibrant and instructive presentation. Included is
information about Earth's place in the universe, how to look at
the night sky, maps of the North and South Polar skies, the equatorial
skies, a guide to northern and southern hemisphere stars, and full
spreads devoted to the major constellations. Clear overlays are
used to connect each constellation's component stars on a paired
photo page. This allows the viewer to compare the photo of the night
sky to the photo with overlay.
