University of Cambridge: Teeny Tiny Science: I See a Star by Saskia Gwinn

I see a star that sparkles with light, high up in Space, so very far away . . .

From clouds of dust drifting in the freezing depths of space to the explosive power of a supernova, join two children and their cat on a fantastic journey through the life-cycle of a star. As they ride on a meteor, zoom in a rocket and stargaze from their garden, young readers will discover how the stars up above us begin, grow and die in an incredible, ever-changing cycle.With a storybook format and stunning illustrations, this book will entertain, inspire and gently educate 3-5-year-olds.

A fun, friendly and lyrical picture book series about cycles and systems for the very young.
