What is The Story of the Great Bear (Stories in the Stars) about?
Ursa Major, also known as the Great Bear, is one of the most famous constellations in the night sky. Ancient cultures thought the star formation looked like a bear, and the ancient Greeks connected the constellation to their myth of Callisto, a lovely woman who was transformed into a bear by the jealous goddess Hera. This exciting book provides an accessible introduction to the world of mythology and stargazing. Readers will also learn how to identify the Big Dipper within the Great Bear.
