I Wonder Why Stars Twinkle by Carole Stott

Curious young astronomers who ask, What are stars made of? and Why do astronauts float in space? will find the answers here.

Carole Stott has written a number of children's books, as well as specialist books and articles for academic journals. Prior to full time writing, she worked at the Old Royal Observatory in Greenwich, U.K., where she was Curator and Head of the Observatory. Stott specialized in the history of astronomy and increasing the public's understanding and enjoyment of the heavens. With a young family of her own and the introduction of astronomy on the national curriculum, she writes for and talks to increasingly younger audiences, trying to find new ways of bringing the Universe down to Earth. During her years as an astronomer, she has lectured and broadcast on TV and radio to audiences all around the world. She lives in Sheffield, England, with her family.
