Constellations

In Constellations, early fluent readers will explore the science behind stars and their patterns, as well as the history behind their mapping. Vibrant, full-color photos and carefully leveled text will engage young readers as they explore outer space and constellations. An infographic, sidebars, and an activity offer kids an opportunity to extend discovery. Children can learn more about stars and constellations using our safe search engine that provides relevant, age-appropriate websites. Constellations also features reading tips for teachers and parents, a table of contents, a glossary, and an index. Constellations is part of Jump!'s Amazing Sights in the Sky series.
