You Can't See in the Dark with the Lights On is a story of a boy who has a sudden and growing interest in astronomy and outer space, but he's not sure where to begin. He finds that book learning and a visit to the local planetarium are OK, but what he really wants is a view of the night sky as good as it can be. He discovers that if you leave the city and suburbs behind and get out into the country on a clear, moonless night, the night sky can be magnificent. You don't even need a telescope. It's one of Nature's grand spectacles, and it's free for everyone to enjoy.
