Stars: A Family Guide to the Night Sky

Stargazing is a lovely cross-generational activity who wouldn’t be fascinated by the sheer size of the universe? Stars offers a straightforward guide to what we know and how we know it, plus a range of activities, ranging from star charts (showing the stars you’ll see in different seasons and in different places) to Test Your Eyesight challenges in star-spotting and appealing planet and alien sticker sheets. Clear, easy-to-follow text alongside magically imaginative illustration is guaranteed to make an evening’s backyard stargazing a family favourite all year round.

Adam Ford is both a keen stargazer and an enthusiastic grandparent. He has an MA in Indian religions, and lectures on astronomy, Buddhism and Hinduism. He has authored several books, including Universe: God, Man & Science and The Art of Mindful Walki
