When I Heard the Learn'd Astronomer

A young boy is the narrator of Walt Whitman's poem When I Heard the Learn'd Astronomer in this picture book version. Clutching a toy rocket, he is taken by his parents to see an astronomer lecture about the proofs, the figures...the charts and the diagrams, to add, divide, and measure them. Overcome by the impenetrable discourse, he goes out into the mystical moist night-air to study the stars himself. With some wordless spreads, the art contains rich, dense acrylic paintings by Loren Long, the New York Times best-selling illustrator of MR. PEABODY'S APPLES, written by Madonna.
