Lily loves her family's tradition of taking after-dinner walks together, but as summer rolls by and the sun dips lower in the sky, Lily's fear of the dark begins to grow. Lily's mother points out the wonders of the night sky from the sparkling constellation of Orion to the glowing trail of the International Space Station passing overhead but will Lily be able to look up and see the beauty all around her?

Written by astronomer Tanya Hill, who overcame her own childhood fear of the dark and has gone on to spend her career sharing the wonder of the night sky with others.
