MY REVIEW
Shine, Star, Shine ! is a very educational book one that I fully recommend as it’s like a little encyclopaedia that’s all about our planet Earth. Inside this book children can find out how a star is born and about our biggest star the Sun. At the back of the book children can find out some more exciting educational star facts. Although this book is aimed at children between 3 to 7 it’s very suitable for children much older. I loved this educational book and even found out a few things that I didn’t know. I hope all schools stock this book in their classroom or school library.
Dom Conlon is a poet and, whether talking on BBC Radio Lancashire or running workshops for children, Dom’s work is guided by nature and the stars. Dom’s work has been praised by award-winning writers such as Nicola Davies, George Szirtes and Chris Riddell.

Astronomy is so facinating, especially when I was a child.

I must admit I wasn’t that interested in Astronomy as a child I was more into poetry, but now I’m fascinated by the Sun, moon, stars.
