As the world becomes more uncertain and life more stressful, getting outside and connecting with nature is an easy and affordable way to boost our mental and physical health.

In Constellations, trained biologist and wellness writer Susan E. Clark introduces the curious reader to the wonderful world of stars. In the first part of the book, you will learn fascinating constellation facts, from celestial navigation and stars in poetry, art and song, to finding your own Zodiac constellation. The second part features 30 different constellations, each with a detailed illustration to help identify them, as well as when they are most visible and how you can spot them. There are countless opportunities to experience nature on your doorstep, and Constellations will encourage you to do just that.

Beautifully designed, the ‘Guide for the Curious’ series of books are small enough to slip into your pocket the next time you venture outside, and are the perfect antidote to endless doom scrolling.
