Bright Sky, Starry City
Phoebe loves everything about the stars. She draws the planets on the sidewalk outside of her dad's store after helping him set up the telescope. Saturn and Mars are going to be visible tonight up in the night sky. But Dad warns her that they might be hard to see, since the city lights "always turned the night sky gray and dull." An illustrated afterword includes information about the solar system, planetary conjunctions and rings, moons, telescopes and light pollution.
