Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, I Know Exactly What You Are, by Julia Kregenow

Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, I Know Exactly What You Are
Written by Julia Kregenow, PhD, Illustrated by Carmen Saldaña

A twist on the classic lullaby, this book provides lots of information about the universe within the context of a simple song. Each page has a verse about the stars which fits to the tune of “Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star” such as…

“Neutron stars spin really fast
when your beams of light sweep past,
then we call you a pulsar,
I know exactly what you are.”

Each verse is accompanied by wonderful illustrations that highlight information from that verse. The last few pages give more detailed information about what stars are. This is a great introduction to the sky above us presented in a cute, fun way.
