5.0 out of 5 stars
Great Gift for a Twelve (or so) Year Old,
By
This review is from: Arizona and New Mexico StarWatch: The Essential Guide to Our Night Sky (Spiral-bound)
OK, so I don't live in Arizona or New Mexico. But I live in the state just north of Arizona, and this was the closest book I could get. I bought it for a youngster that's just beginning to show interest in astronomy. She's twelve and sitting out one evening and having her identify various stars to her mother and I was nothing less than fantastic. And this from a kid with less than stellar (sorry I couldn't resist) grades in school. You've just got to find something that interests them. I guess that come Christmas time I'm going to be in the market for a telescope.The book was exactly what I was seeking. It's aimed at the younger reader so that the descriptions are not too complex, not too mathematical -- that can come later. It's personalized, if that's the word, to the local states (and the same author has other versions of the book for other states). |
