Astronomy gives every important celestial body and concept its own page, where readers can learn its behaviors, likes, and dislikes up close and personal. From the flashy stars to the shadowy and strange objects that hang out like loners at the edges of the universe, no player goes unnoticed. Every profile has a hip anime-style portrait to round out the picture, but make no mistake: while the presentation is all style, the science is rock solid. The book includes a poster of the solar system in the back.

Praise for Basher Science: Astronomy
"Basher has created a portrait gallery of personified . . . celestial bodies in a hyper-cute, pastel cartoon style reminiscent of Japanese artist Takashi Murakami's more extravagant flights . . . Green's astro-narrative is both accurate and spiced with seldom-mentioned details . . . it could kindle (or in under motivated older readers, rekindle) interest in the topic. And it's fun!"—School Library Journal
