Launch kids into space and the solar system

Goodnight Starry is a beautiful picture book for little stargazers aged 3-6 years. Saying Goodnight to each member of the Earth's family in the solar system, they will discover how very different and special each one is.  And learn things that they will recall, long after bedtime is over.

Humorously written and beautifully illustrated, Goodnight Starry is the perfect goodnight story to ignite a little one's love of the planets, moons, stars and space.  And they can sleep safe and sound, secure in the knowledge that the Earth's celestial family also watches over them each and every night. 

  • Jupiter blowing off

    Take a sneak peek inside

    Did you know Jupiter's Great Red Spot has been blowing off for over 300 years?

  • Saturn - Queen of the night sky

    Did you know that Saturn’s beautiful rings are made up of millions and millions of tiny particles of dust, rocks and ice?

  • Naughty old Neptune

    Did you know Neptune was only discovered in 1846 and is named after the Roman God of the Sea?
