This beautifully illustrated biography of Edwin Hubble explores the
curiosity that he possessed from a young age, and the many
questions that he asked about our universe. This book invites
children to ponder these questions as well: How many stars are in
the sky? How did the universe begin? Where did it come from? ★ A

Children's Informational Books (Children's Literature Association
of Utah) This is the story of Edwin Hubble, a boy fascinated by the
stars who surmounted many hurdles to follow his dreams of
becoming an astronomer. Using the insights of great
mathematicians and endlessly observing the sky, he succeeded
in confirming two things that altered human life forever:
that there are more galaxies than our own, and that
the universe is always expanding. Hubble’s message to us is
to find peace in the vastness of the mystery surrounding us,
and to be curious. “We do now know why we are born into the
world,” he said, “but we can try to find out what sort of
world it is.”
