This would be a good book to use for a 3rd, 4th or 5th grade class and it could help introduce students to the topic of space, planets and our solar system. It provides a little rhyme about each thing the letters of the alphabet represent in the book, but it also has a section of information on each page - going into depth about what the letter stands for.

Epigraph

Dedication

For Andrew, Colin, and Steve -
the rightest stars in my universe.

--Janis

For Dad, who always taught me to shine,
And for my other stars: Bill, Maggie, and Robert.

Cathy

For Dad, who had his part in making the dream of space exploration a reality, for both of my parents, who gave me a sense of imagination and a wonder about life and all creation.

Deo gratia

Alan
