Where are the constellations? / by Stephanie Sabol ; illustrated by Laurie A. Conley.
"Ancient people from many different cultures all looked up and imagined pictures in the sky by "drawing" a line from one star to another, like a connect-the-dots puzzle. These star pictures -- constellations -- represented myths and legends from the various cultures that still fascinate us today. Author Stephanie Sabol relates many of the most popular constellation stories and explains what stars actually are: how they formed, why they die, and how they're grouped into constellation families." -- Provided by publisher.
