Louis and the Night Sky Book

What's a boy to do when he can't fall asleep, and it's very, very dark, and the sky outside is full of stars? Louis puts on his warm woolly hat and his red winter mittens and wishes on the brightest star he can see, "I want to live on a planet where the lights are on all night long." And — swishity-swoosh — his great adventure begins.
He flies through the sky making quick stops at all the planets from Mercury to Pluto. But each falls short in some way — Mars is too tiny, Venus is too cloudy. Soon, he's heading to the most beautiful planet in the sky — Earth! And when he's once again safe and sound in his very own room, the night sky whispers a soft goodnight.
Told in easily understood language, here's a very early introduction to astronomy, a first book of science fiction, and a comforting story for any one just a little bit afraid of the dark. Pre and early readers will be enchanted, and will love following Louis' journey on the brightly colored map shown on the endpapers.
