Why can it be daytime here and nighttime somewhere else? What makes the Moon familiar, a star shine, or a rocket travel beyond our atmosphere?

Amazing Universe explores 190 questions across eight themes: Sky & Observation, The Sun & Its Light, The Moon, The Planets, Asteroids & Comets, The Lives of Stars, The Deep Universe, and Exploring Space.

Begin with familiar patterns in the sky, then explore how planets, stars, and galaxies connect with bigger ideas. Learn why Earth's turning makes the Sun appear to cross the sky, how different places move into daylight, and how astronomers use evidence to investigate objects far beyond our reach.

Full-color illustrations accompany clear English explanations, short summary statements, and “Good to know” features. The question-and-answer structure makes it easy to choose a topic for shared reading or return to a question independently.

From a quiet evening looking at the stars to a reading-time conversation about space, this illustrated paperback makes room for the next why.
