Most people imagine stars as lonely points of light scattered across space.
But in reality, many stars are born with companions.
Celestial Siblings: The Science of Binary Stars for Curious Kids introduces young readers to binary star systems—pairs of stars held together by gravity that orbit and evolve side by side. These systems are common throughout the Milky Way and play a key role in helping scientists understand how stars form, change, and sometimes explode.
Written for readers ages 9–12, this book explains real astronomy using clear language, strong visual ideas, and thoughtful explanations—without relying on advanced math or technical jargon. Readers will learn how binary stars are born in stellar nurseries, how gravity shapes their motion, why some stars exchange material, and how astronomers use light, motion, and modern telescopes to study them.
The book also explores exciting topics such as eclipsing stars, X-ray binaries, black holes with partners, and planets that orbit two suns—all grounded in real scientific discovery.
Perfect for classrooms, libraries, and curious minds, Celestial Siblings shows that understanding the universe starts with asking good questions—and watching the stars carefully.
