What is The Day the Universe Exploded My Head : Poems to Take You Into Space and Back Again about?

1 volume (unpaged) : 30 cm Creative nonfiction poetry combines humor, creative imagery, and illustrations to explain topics in astronomy and other space sciences Hang on tight for a raucous bounce through the solar system and back -- propelled by funny, fanciful, factually sound poems and exuberant illustrations. The universe poured into me. My brain was overloaded. It smoked and glowed red-hot. And then it actually exploded. Ever wonder what the sun has to say about being the closest star to Earth? Or what Pluto has gotten up to since being demoted to a dwarf planet? Or where rocket ships go when they retire? Listen closely, because maybe, just maybe, your head will explode, too. With poetry that is equal parts accurate and entertaining -- and illustrations that are positively out of this world -- this book will enthrall amateur stargazers and budding astrophysicists as it reveals many of the wonders our universe holds. Space travelers in search of more information will find notes about the poems, a glossary, and a list of resources at the end Grades 3-7 The Sun : a solar sunnet, er, sonnet -- The Sun did not go down today -- A Moon buffet -- Shooting stars : Perseid meteor shower
