Product Description
Ada and the Galaxies (MIT Kids Press)
Author: Alan Lightman
Format: Paperback
Recommended for ages 4+
In his first book for young readers, physicist Alan Lightman teams up with Olga Pastuchiv and illustrator Susanna Chapman, who weaves real Hubble telescope images into her artwork. The story follows Ada, who spends summers stargazing on a Maine island with her grandparents.
Her days are filled with osprey, kayaking and shell-hunting, but she comes alive after dark when the stars appear. When fog threatens to spoil her viewing, her grandfather looks for a way to reveal the wonders of the universe.
