A friendly first guide to the wonders of space and the Universe

Discover the mysteries of the Universe and journey to galaxies beyond our own in this fact-packed companion to space.

From icy worlds and hot, fiery giants to the biggest telescopes and latest spacecraft, this book covers more than 40 profiles of the planets, stars, and objects in our Universe. Find out all about our neighbouring planets, from tiny Mercury to gigantic Jupiter. Discover what lies beyond our Solar System and the stars we can see in the night sky. Learn about the latest space technology and when humans may finally land on Mars.

Broken down by type, each object is presented in a clear, engaging way, with stunning images and bite-sized chunks of information. Detailed NASA photography brings the mysteries of outer space to life, while pronunciation guides help with tricky names, and a visual index gives a quick overview of all the key objects in the book. Filled with fascinating details for every young stargazer and budding astronaut, My Book of Stars and Planets is the perfect first reference book on space and the Universe for kids.
