Zusammenfassung: | 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 |

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 Weltraum (DE-588)4189606-3 gnd rswk-swf Planet (DE-588)4046212-2 gnd rswk-swf Englisch (DE-588)4014777-0 gnd rswk-swf Kinderlyrik (DE-588)4163822-0 gnd rswk-swf Astronaut (DE-588)4143247-2 gnd rswk-swf Astronomie (DE-588)4003311-9 gnd rswk-swf USA (DE-588)4078704-7 gnd rswk-swf Space sciences / Juvenile poetry Planets / Juvenile poetry Outer space / Juvenile poetry Children's poetry, English Planets / Poetry Science / Poetry Outer space / Poetry Humorous Poetry Solar System Poetry Outer Space Poetry Technology - Aeronautics, Astronautics & Space Science Science & Nature / Astronomy JUVENILE NONFICTION / Poetry / Humorous JUVENILE NONFICTION / Technology / Aeronautics, Astronautics & Space Science JUVENILE NONFICTION / Science & Nature / Astronomy Space sciences Planets Outer space Children's poetry Humorous poetry Juvenile works Poetry (DE-588)4002214-6 Anthologie gnd-content (DE-588)4303251-5 Kinderbuch gnd-content (DE-588)4160799-5 Humoristische Darstellung gnd-content USA (DE-588)4078704-7 g Englisch (DE-588)4014777-0 s Kinderlyrik (DE-588)4163822-0 s Weltraum (DE-588)4189606-3 s Planet (DE-588)4046212-2 s Astronaut (DE-588)4143247-2 s Astronomie (DE-588)4003311-9 s DE-604 Raff, Anna (DE-588)1226176054 ill |
