Animals in the Sky<\/em>
\nby Sara Gillingham(Author \/ Illustrator) <\/p>\n

Booktalk:<\/strong> With a guessing game, this board book helps younger children identify six of the most recognizable animal constellations from The Great Bear to the The Southern Fish. Each constellation is introduced as a cluster of stars with its connected-line shape; readers then guess the animal through a series of read-aloud clues. A full animal illustration gatefold reveals the answer, accompanied by extra information about the constellation and its important stars. <\/p>\n
