When the Sun Goes Dark
Andrew Fraknoi, Dennis Schatz, illustrated by Eric Freeberg
Two curious children and their astronomer grandparents investigate eclipses of the Sun and Moon. In their living room, they build eclipse models using a lamp, a tennis ball, Hula Hoops, and Ping-Pong balls. Later, the family explores safe solar-eclipse viewing outside and considers sunspots and the Moon’s phases. The book includes activities using everyday objects to model astronomical events.
