How stars are formed and their ultimate fate.

This is another book in Isaac Asimov's excellent "New Library of the Universe" series that serves as a supplementary text for the introduction of astronomy for young children.

The book is an update and revision by Francis Reddy of Isaac Asimov's "The Birth and Death of Stars" (1988). Asimov had passed away in 1992.
