Beautifully illustrated and cleverly designed, Our Galaxy opens and folds back into a sturdy circular globe fastened by a hidden magnetic closure.

Secondary text offers more detailed, curriculum-focused facts and encourages children to learn about rockets, rovers, and other space technologies. Inspiring, informative, and one-of-a-kind, this artful homage to outer space is both an invitation to explore the night sky and an object to be treasured for years to come.
