Discover a sky-full of stories from around the world.
For thousands of years, every culture on earth has gazed up at the heavens in wonder and found pictures hidden amid the stars. Combining the rich myths and legends woven across the night sky with simple scientific facts, this vividly illustrated collection brings these incredible tales to life. Find out about Orion with his hunting dogs and belt of three bright stars; Selene, the bewitching goddess of the moon, who fell in love with a mortal; the four brave hunters who endlessly pursue a great bear across the sky; Draco the dragon, warrior of Titans; and other stories from ancient Greece, Egypt, Ethiopia, Scandinavia, Native America, and around the world.
