Constellations and their stories. Very entertaining and educational.
I have a copy of this book from the 1960s. I love the simplistic approach to star and constellation gazing, along with the stories that follow them. Entertained my two boys when they were younger and can't wait to tell all the stories to my granddaughter by the campfire. And now I look forward to sending this newer version to my nephew's young daughter. They live in Scotland on a hill with infinite views of the sky. It's in pristine condition.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
