    About this audiobook

    Star light, star bright, what will I find over the rainbow? Take a tour of the summer skies of the day and night.

    Starry starry nights, stormy and sun-filled days. Long summer days of picnics and ballgames are played out under a vast and gorgeous canvas of astronomical and meteorological curiosities. From the stories of the stars told by the ancients, to a recent mammatus cloud over CitiField in New York, learn about the phenomena in the summer skies that keep us looking up.

    Co-host:
    Joe Rao: meteorologist for News 12 Westchester, New York.
