This review is from: Science Explorer: Astronomy: Student Edition (NATL) (Hardcover)

Shipper delivered as advertised. Publisher does a nice job of compiling information and using on-line activities, however I would skip Chapter 2 on Exploring Space until end of book/lesson plan as it only serves to distract the students from the subject.
