Reviews
Tamen lives in the city, so he cannot see the stars due to the light pollution, but his mother takes him on a camping trip and shows him the constellations. Told with warmth, this story will inspire children to learn more about the constellations and astronomy.--Penny Peck, San Jose State Univ, iSch "Bay Views, Association of Children's Librarians of Northern California (ACL)" (3/28/2022 12:00:00 AM)
