But then . . . BANG! Stars caught fire and burned so long that they exploded, flinging stardust everywhere. And the ash of those stars turned into planets. Into our Earth. And into us. In a poetic text, Marion Dane Bauer takes readers from the trillionth of a second when our universe was born to the singularities that became each one of us, while vivid illustrations by Ekua Holmes capture the void before the Big Bang and the ensuing life that burst across galaxies. A seamless blend of science and art, this picture book reveals the composition of our world and beyond — and how we are all the stuff of stars.\nA perfect gift for:\nBaby showers and newborns, a poetic keepsake that parents will treasure\nFirst birthdays, a meaningful book to mark a milestone\nNew parents, an uplifting message about love, creation, and belonging\nIf you are looking for a baby book that inspires awe and connection, one that grows in meaning as your child does, The Stuff of Stars is the perfect choice.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 076367883X\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: 31UI56009EMX_ns\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Bauer, Marion Dane|Holmes, Ekua\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item shows wear from consistent use, but it remains in good condition and works perfectly.
