review:
I love the night sky and constellations, so when I saw 'Starry Skies: Learn about constellations above us' by Samantha Chagollan with illustrations by Nila Aye, I grabbed a review copy to check out. Unfortunately, I was a bit disappointed with the end result.
It's a picture book for young kids, which is fine. And it does give some pictures and names of constellations. It fails to give any sort of location for children or their parents to look for these in the sky. Some are easier to find for the unfamiliar, but there isn't a lot of information given here on where to look.
That might have been nice in an informative afterword for adults or older children. Even a sky chart might have been useful. I did really like the illustrations with their white on black lines.
I received a review copy of this ebook from Quarto Publishing Group-Walter Foster Jr., and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.
