This book is definately not what I expected; but in a good way I am glad for that. This is a book that most kids can 'read' and try to interpret for themselves. The author has a nice way of piquing the interest of its younger readers.

While the book is weak in technical details (there are many other books for that)it is written in such a way that 'kids' can explore and create their own visions of what to expect from photography.

For the last six months I have been teaching my nine year old grandaughter the art and technical techniques of digital photography. Although she has really grasped the technical side of the Canon 1DsII that I gave her, when I let her read this book she came to me with an entire list of 'projects' for US to try. That alone is reason enough to buy this book!

As a photography and art teacher I have to say that this book is not really an educational guide like one you would use to instruct with. It is more like an interest guide to give to a child and let them explore through hoping that their interest is piqued. I was buying this for a budding photographer, who is a 9 year old, and while it will be interesting for her to look through, it just doesn't give enough meat. Keep looking... there has to be more out there.

My daughter absolutely loves taking pictures, and they don't always turn out the way she would like them to. She understands the basics of our digital cameras, but she gets easily disappointed when things don't turn out right. While she has not read this book yet, I have read it and recommend it highly. I plan to share some of the ideas with her at a later time.

I appreciated the easy way this book was written. Any child who is old enough to truly take pictures and read would have no problem comprehending the simple tips. The authors give a vast amount of examples to illustrate their points, and they give several viable recommendations. They even have a glossary in the back that describes all the photography terms that may not be so well-known.

My only recommendation is that if you decide to get this book, you will want either and ebook with color or a physical copy of the book. Since all the examples I saw were in black and white, I didn't have a good grasp of the concepts the authors were trying to convey.

I was sent a copy of the book in exchange for my honest review. I was not financially compensated, and all opinions are 100 percent mine.

Friends' child has 'emergency call' phone with limited ability to make phone calls. However, she is a natural 'shutter bug'. She likes to share her photo essays with my husband who is a professional photographer. This is a great book with lots of full page, glossy pics to inspire further photography points of view and explore her equipment's versatility.
