You may be interested in The Star People by Gaylord Johnson, recently released over at Project Gutenberg. It’s a story about an uncle teaching some kids, who form “the society of star gazers”, about the star constellations.
“Why did not somebody teach me the constellations, and make me at home in the starry heavens, which are always overhead and which I don’t half know to this day?”
—Thomas Carlyle.
