Why you should read this book: Living in a big city, Ada can barely see any stars at all, and looks forward to visiting her grandparents in Maine, where the night sky is easily visible. All day Ada enjoys the coastal life and learns about nature, but the entire time she's just thinking about when she can see the stars, and when the sun finally sets, the fog rolls in and Ada still can't see the stars. Instead, she continues learning astronomy from her grandfather and his books, and finally, just before bed, realizes that the fog has lifted and she can see the stars after all.
Why you shouldn't read this book: The premise seems a bit far-fetched but I guess it takes all kinds.
