This was an amazing book. Uncle Henry teaches his niece and nephews the constellations from his lake beach, drawing in the sand and using pebbles for stars. The children have fun learning and finding star people. Then in the winter Uncle Henry goes to their apartment and teaches them more using a chalkboard on the roof. I like the stories and pictures. I have the 1928 book.

Jupiter | Thomas Hockey, William Sheehan
post image
Pickpick

If a history of the astronomical observation of Jupiter, an overview of its likely formation, tabulation of its physical metrics, a summary of the characteristics of its major satellites, a review of planetary probes that have visited it, details of Jovian meteorology, and tips on amateur observation and recording of its changing features, all illustrated with photos and diagrams, sounds interesting, then this is a book for you. And for me 😁

Bookwomble We're spending Christmas with our children, hosted by our son. While the kids play board games, I'm stuck under a sleeping old gentlecat, Leto, sporting his natty new jumper.

After reviewing my decision to read a book likely to focus to some degree on trauma and marginalisation, I decided to switch to this illustrated book about the planet Jupiter, and open myself to the wonders of nature and the universe 🌌
In the cup is a cinnamon and plum green tea 🍵
I'll get to the other book next year.

jitteryjane724 Enjoy! Sounds like a much needed peaceful time, may it be full of wonder as well. 2w

It‘s always kinda weird to read a book and the day‘s date pops up. 😆 🎃

Re: the candy. We hope there are people who bring their kids around here. In our last place there weren‘t very many kids. But it‘s already nearly 6:30 here and no one yet. 😞

Go Dodgers. 😊

StaceGhost I loved this book! We lived near the Annie Jump Cannon house for years! 2mo
AnnCrystal 🤔 No kids in our neighborhood this year...😕. 2mo
IriDas @StaceGhost that‘s really neat 😊 2mo
IriDas @AnnCrystal I heard this from a lot of people. We had ICE in the area on Wednesday so people think that might be the reason here. 😞 2mo
AnnCrystal @IriDas poor children 😢🎃🥺. 2mo

Good Monday morning. Game 7 of the 1960s World Series. Pirates v Yankees. And reading during the commercials. Last week was a rough one here, so I‘m hoping starting things right will help things along. 😊

Does the book count as scary if you read it at your 16yo‘s doctor appointment where their BP was high and the doctor says, “has anyone ever mentioned a heart murmur before?” after listening to his chest?

I think I impressed the staff with how calm I was. They have no idea that this is not my first rodeo and, in comparison to other Dx my other kids have had, it‘s pretty innocuous. 😆 Tests are OK so far, though. Still, I think it should count. 😜

AnnCrystal 💝💝💝 I'm glad the test are good so far, and hope they continue to be just as good 😘💝💝💝. 3mo
