Once upon a Star: A Poetic Journey Through Space

32 pp. | Doubleday | November, 2018 | Trade ISBN 978-0-525-57933-5 $17.99
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Mar Hernández. Rhyming text takes readers from the big bang through the creation of stars and planets and life on Earth, making the case that we're all made of stardust ("You're a star!"). The book accessibly covers a lot of ground and some very big ideas, accompanied by vibrant illustrations with bold colors and patterns. Concludes with "Sciencey Stuff" about our sun.
