Little Edisons – Zoo in the Sky

Little Edisons read the award-winning book Zoo in the Sky: A Book of Animal Constellations by author Jacqueline Mitton and illustrator Christina Balit and learn how constellations came about. Then participants make their own Big Dipper, explore how constellations help people figure out directions, and make their own constellations and give them names.
