Book of Astronomy and Space (Usborne Internet-linked Reference) (Internet-Linked Reference Books)

I give this book as a present to my friend and he was very happy with all the information and pictures inside the book. I think the book is for beginners in Astrology. Good delivery and in time.

I'm not going to lie, I bought this book for myself. Yeah, it's aimed at people younger than I, but I still got a massive amount of enjoyment from it.This is not a book that you read once and then shelve. It's something that you can always pop back to and find an overview on something you can't quite remember. It's also pretty simplified, giving you a great base range of knowledge on a number of interesting things. There are a lot of pages at the back with illustrations and explanations of star placements and constellations so you can take it out on a dark night and enjoy yourself or teach your kids.I'd recommend it for anyone interested in getting a base knowledge of space but doesn't want to go through the trouble of looking up fragmented bits of information and losing interest in the process. It's a starter book from which you can go onto other things and explore elsewhere in more detail what is mentioned in this book. It's also got those star maps which means you'll still be interested in it even if you know a lot more than the information inside.This is a great book for adults as well as kids, and I'm sure any kid interested in the subject would absolutely love it. Very informative, well ordered and easy to remember. It's got lots of pictures and illustrations and is a beautiful book. Sturdy cover and coloured pages, so it's not going to fall apart if they get their hands on it or take it outside.

We bought this for our son (aged 6) as he was learning about space at all. We were going to go for the more basic Usborne space book but didn't think it would hold enough info to keep him interested as he got older. This is accessible for him to read parts to himself and also for us to share with him. In fact the information is probably great for any age who is starting to get interested in space. It provides enough detail without going too complex. Plus the star maps were a bonus as our son had a telescope for his birthday. A great buy for the price.

I have ordered this book twice and twice been told after several days that it is mysteriously not available. It looked good but I doubt if my grand daughter is going to get to read it.

This book arrived in excellent condition and was enthusiasticlly greeted by the young man for whom it was purchased. Lots of ideas, lots to do, lots to learn.
