Incredible Childrens Book About Child Stars

By Ina Hunt


The mind of children requires literature that is engaging and interesting to keep them attentive. Getting childrens book about child stars is the best way to introduce them to space science at the early age. There are a collection of books available in the market from where one can make a choice.

Roaring Rockets is an incredible title targeting children around the age of three years. It is authored by Tony Mitton and specializes on rhymes for the tender age. It gives a story about a trip to the moon through a very interesting perspective. It is funny to read and very interesting for the teacher, parent or guardian who is leading the child.

Papa, Please Get the Moon for Me is written by Carle Eric and aimed at introducing children to a waxing and waning moon. The best age is when the kids are three of more years. The simple presentation and pleasant language used by the author makes it ideal and interesting for that age.

Molly and Franklin Branley combined their imagination to come up with The Big Dipper. This is an ideal way to introduce children to constellations and other objects in the sky. Children are able to identify small and big dippers, great and little bears and the North Star, among others.

James Ransom and Lenny Holt came together and gave children the title How Many Stars in the Sky. This is the best selection for the imaginative mind of children since they begin to look forward to long sky gazing hours. It does not dwell on the fact that they have to identify constellations or the phases of the moon. This is a story of a father who drives his son to the country for the sole purpose of gazing at the skies.

Space travel excites children at a tender age. This is the inspiration behind IF You Decide To Go To The Moon as written by Kellogg Steve and Faith McNulty. It is fantasy from page one and the first sentence. The child gets into a space suit at the first sentence and is engaged throughout as though he or she is an astronaut.

Yoshikawa Sachiko and Steve Tomecek are not interested in fiction. They choose to present facts in a manner that will elicit genuine interest in children at four years or more. This is through the book Stars, which explains where they disappear to during the day and why they reappear at night. Children get to learn in a simple language why some sky objects appear brighter than others.

Mitton Jacqueline and Christian Balit use a lot of illustrations to deliver the idea of constellations to young children. They penned down a collection of short stories with accompanying illustrations about sky positions. They also describe their behavior across seasons in an interesting yet factual manner.

Rockwell Ann picks a pictorial approach in her book Our Stars. The pictures are paired with tagging statements that describe each star in relation to other objects in the sky. She touches on the moon and the behavior of meteors through very interesting and simple language that can be understood by all. The nature of materials used in this book fits children above the age of five.
