Can you imagine going several days without any sunlight? Or days where the sun never sets at all?
How long can one night last?
In the town of Barrow, Alaska, it can stay dark for up to 10 weeks straight during a certain part of the year.
Inside, you'll find:
* How extreme darkness and brightness shape life on Earth;
* A timeline, photos - and how animals adjust to extreme darkness and brightness;
* Surprising TRUE facts that will shock and amaze you!
Readers will find out why these situations occur in certain places and how they can affect people's lives. They will also explore locations where the night sky is darkest and find out which places on Earth produce enough light to spot them from outer space.
