Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of Earth and Sky Studies of children's spontaneous questions show that beginning at about the age of nine and lasting at least until early adolescence, there is a keen interest in the origin of things, in the whys of natural phenomena, and in the stars. Schools nowadays adjust their curricula to such interests, and try to give children that mental food and those activities which are suitable to their stage of development. Hence the story of the earth - its probable origin, its evolution, and its place in the solar system - and the story of the imagination-stretching starry universe are becoming important parts of the course of study in elementary schools and junior high schools.
