A child's introduction to the night sky : the story of the stars, planets, and constellations, and how you can find them in the sky / Michael Driscoll ; illustrated by Meredith Hamilton.
Since ancient times, people have been looking up and wondering about all of the things that glow in the night sky, and about our place in the big, wide universe. The study of the sky and all of the objects and forces up there is called astronomy, and A Child's Introduction to the Night Sky is a great introduction to what astronomers have learned (and are still discovering), what astronauts and scientists explore - and what you yourself can find by gazing up into the sky at night.--
