Usha and the Big Digger

Usha, her sister Aarti, and their cousin Gloria look at the stars but identify different shapes there. Aarti sees the Big Dipper, while Usha calls it the Big Digger and Gloria sees a Big Kite. The story asks whether these different interpretations can all be right. It introduces geometry and spatial relationships through the children’s views of constellations, and includes a note about constellations in different cultures.
