This book invites children to ponder these questions as well: How many stars are in the sky? How did the universe begin? Where did it come from?★ A New York Public Library Best Book for Kids of 2021 ★ A Marginalian (formerly Brain Pickings) Loveliest Children’s Book of 2021★ A Bank Street College of Education Best Book of 2022, of Outstanding Merit★ An Air & Space Magazine Best Children's Book of 2021 ★ A EUREKA! Nonfiction Children's Book Honor Award Winner (California Reading Association)★ Nominated for a 2023 Beehive Award for Children's Informational Books (Children's Literature Association of Utah)This is the story of Edwin Hubble, a boy fascinated by the stars who surmounted many hurdles to follow his dreams of becoming an astronomer. Using the insights of great mathematicians and endlessly observing the sky, he succeeded in confirming two things that altered human life forever: that there are more galaxies than our own, and that the universe is always expanding. Hubble’s message to us is to find peace in the vastness of the mystery surrounding us, and to be curious. “We do now know why we are born into the world,” he said, “but we can try to find out what sort of world it is.”
