Ursa Minor (little bear) is also called the “little dipper” and looks like a smaller version of the "big dipper" that makes up the body of Ursa Major. But with a slightly more bendy handle. It is actually pretty hard to pick out unless you know exactly what you are looking for. The key is that the Pole Star is the tip of its tail. Here is how the dots join up - here it is the other way up from the picture above - it revolves around the end of its tail so you need to get used to spotting it any way up!:

This dolphin really looks nothing like a dolphin and the stars relate strangely to the shape of the eagle, but this will help you to remember the relative positions of these constellations:

Cygnus is perhaps going to pluck out a tune on Lyra:

Notice the cluster of stars on Taurus’s back. Those are the Pleiades - I think that the image is actually completely the mirror image of what it actually looks like - presumably this is because the printing process reverses it:

Now link together all three - Orion the bullfighter with his cape; Taurus charging, and the seven sisters on his back.

Orion is sometimes depicted as a hunter with a club, like thi one:

Here is the rest of the bull drawn around the V of the nose:

Here is an old drawing showing how the stars fit to a picture of a bear:

Aquila is an eagle. Here is how the dots join up: you can see the eagle’s head and its two wings on each side. People often mistake the three stars of the eagle’s head for Orion’s belt, so make sure that you don’t!:

Cassiopeia is actually a woman, but the constellation is most easily recognisable as a big, slightly lopsided W is in the sky. In this picture is is on its side:

Cygnus is a massive cross, the swan’s long neck stretching out in front:
