This book is in the same style that so many children of this generation are already use too, it's very DK or Osborne like. There is, to the point information, a picture or two on every page, yet it is detailed enough even for a good reader while not turning away delayed readers. The bit size paragraphs are far less intimidating then in other styles of books. Perhaps that's why DK and Osborne sell so many books.

There is a make and take type project on nearly everyother page, great for the hands on learners. Instructions simple enough for people that don't like instructions, (with pictures) of what it's suppose to look like. The supplies are things easily found around a house. My children are excited, that it's not just a book to read! But also one to do!

We will look for more books by this author is this style. I'd say you need to be at least 8 or 9, to do this however children as old as 15 would find this a cool book! Especially if they love cameras, or want to learn about them. Cheapest books for this much material I've seen in awhile! Way to GO!

This nonfiction book was in excellent condition from the seller. I was looking for a book that I could use with preschoolers. The text is a little above their level, but the pictures and diagrams are great. It will be a useful tool for our camera study.

Remembering the audience - this is a 5 Star book, for sure. It would also be relevant for the very curious and open minded adult understanding it is not pitched for you, but yes - there is play within that will allow you to, and encourage you to, play with a camera in new ways.

Covers very basic ideas, gives projects, and suggestions for shooting. PERFECT gift for the young mind interested in photography.
