## About this book

Explore the known Universe and consider its mind-boggling scale in this crisply illustrated, well-researched picture book from Caldecott Medalist Jason Chin. Winner of the Cook Prize!

How do they compare to the tallest buildings? To Mt. Everest? To stars, galaxy clusters, and . . .
