A short, beautifully illustrated kids' book featuring mythical stories involving stars and constellations, from all around the world. The stories themselves, judging by the ones I was already familiar with, are a bit compressed, but I found the ones that were new to me interesting, anyway. And the illustrations really are gorgeous, featuring lots of brilliant gold to really highlight the stellar theme.

Would make a nice gift for kids with any interest in mythology or astronomy. ( )

Each tale is a few pages, with beautiful, full-color illustrations.

Ancient Greece - 7 tales
North and South America - 5 tales
Africa - 3 tales
Asia - 4 tales
Australia and Oceania - 5 tales

No front or back matter.

Checked out again and re-read March 2020-July 2020. Good for bedtime stories. ( )
