"Looking up at the stars on a clear night can inspire many questions in young minds. This easy-to-follow text provides lots of answers about star formation, sizes, temperatures, colors, constellations, and the life and death of stars. A fun, hands-on-activity illustrates why stars only shine at night. Fast facts and Words to Know offer additional information, while colorful photos bring each concept to life. The book correlates directly with the Next Generation Science Standards' expectation for understanding Earth's Place in the Universe in grades 1-2.
