Star Stories for Little Folks - Paperback

by Gertrude Chandler Warner (Author)

Still one of the most enchanting astronomy books for children, this 1918 work frames the addictive habit of gazing at the night sky as a series of brief story-lessons given by "Doctor Lorry" to young Helen, who wants nothing more than to learn the names of all the beautiful stars in the firmament. Complete with simple illustrations that beginning stargazers of all ages will appreciate, this is an informative and entertaining introduction to the wonders of the celestial realms. American author GERTRUDE CHANDLER WARNER (1890-1979) is best remembered for The Boxcar Children, her series of books for young readers.
