The Box of Stars: A Practical Guide to the Night Sky and to Its Myths and Legends

ANNOTATION

For everyone who has gazed at the heavens and tried to pick out the constellations, each image on these colorful, oversized cards is pierced with tiny holes along the pattern of the constellation as it appears in the night sky in a magical interactive approach to mapping the cosmos.

FROM THE PUBLISHER

The Box of Stars is a wonderfully simple guide to recognizing the constellations.

This Box Contains: 32 beautiful and easy-to-use cards which together form a complete guide to the stars in the night sky. Each card is pierced with holes which mark the stars of the constellation and which glitter when held up to the light.

Maps of the hemispheres and a handbook show you how to locate the constellations, and the handbook describes the magical and intriguing myths and legends that lie behind them.
