Description

If you lived on the moon, you would have two straight weeks of daylight and then two weeks of night! On Earth, we have both day and night in just twenty-four hours, thanks to the quick rotation of our planet. This classic picture book uses simple, fun diagrams and a guided experiment to explain what makes day and night.
