Professor Wooford McPaw’s History of Astronomy
by Elliot Krusynski
Professor McPaw teaches all about astronomy in this comic-style book. We learn the history of how man began discovering more and more about the planets and stars. Following the Ancient Greeks, Copernicus, Galileo, Newton, and Albert Einstein, we learn how mankind has always asked questions about what lies beyond our horizon.
I love the cute comic style! The cartoon art is adorable, and I like how the information is broken up into small boxes. The format makes it easy to remember all the interesting facts!
There are chapters about stars, planets, early telescopes, modern telescopes, astronauts, space probes, black holes, dark matter, and the life cycle of a star. There is even a section that tells about different theories on the possibility of alien life!
