Product Description
by Guy Ottewell (Author)
This classic book for young people takes you through the night skies of each month, telling the stories of the stars so as to make them familiar, and then gives you an elementary guide to astronomy, from the sun, moon, and planets out to the comets, stars, galaxies, and limits of the universe. The little book sold 15,000 copies even in its 40-page black-and-white form. The new (2014) edition has 90 pages, full color, masses of new information and illustrations, and the same light touch.
