A solar eclipse, a revolt on Mount Olympus, an indecisive butterfly, blue monkeys and Bronze Age blurs, seamen and shipwrecks, cowboys and Indians, a nebulous menace on the celestial horizon, civilizations lost and found, all combine with a brand new box of Crayola crayons, and culminate in a star-gazing adventure for a little girl: ASTRONOMY FOR BEGINNERS is a never-ending journey into parts unknown.
