Astronomy is the science of studying the Universe. But what, exactly, is in the Universe? How do stars shine, and how was our moon created? How many planets are in our solar system? What kinds of tools can we use to see all of these breathtaking things in the sky? What’s the difference between a galaxy and a solar system? Simply, what makes the Universe so special? Discover the answers to these questions-and so much more-in this extraordinary book for young readers.

Flip through 22 fascinating pages and learn fun facts all about the universe by getting lost in captivating illustrations and text about that big wide-open space above us. Did you know that everything you can see, touch, taste, and smell is actually just a teeny tiny part of the Universe? Or that even though Earth has only 1 moon, Jupiter has 79 and Saturn has 82? Or did you know that there is a planet that’s made of diamond? Little Leonardo’s Fascinating World of Astronomy joins the Little Leonardo Fascinating World of series, illustrated by Greg Paprocki.
