Take your youngsters on a voyage across the universe and ignite
their passion for exploring the night sky in this fascinating and
imaginative guide to astronomy for kids ages 6 to 10. This second
book in the Wooford McPaw series takes on the subject of the cosmos
and everything within it. In his distinctively humorous, somewhat
subversive tone, Elliot Kruszynski (in the guise of the Prof) looks
at how our understanding of our place within the universe has
evolved from the days of Ancient Greece, to the discoveries of
Copernicus and Gallileo, through to Newton and then to Einstein and
Hawking. In and amongst these stories, we find out about how the
universe may have been formed, the birth and death of stars,
different types of galaxies, our own solar system and the mysteries
of dark matter and dark energy. Kruszynski's comprehensive but
easily understood texts are brought to life in comic-style panels
with plenty of dialogue and discussion bringing the subject alive,
and providing a refreshing new take on a subject matter that never
ceases to boggle the mind!
