Pawsitive FEEDBACK!

It's good to see a pet site that shows all kinds of animals, not only cats and dogs. Pasture pets... too funny! And who says a frog or spider can't be a pet?  Steve - Dentist - Baton Rouge

Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Children eight and up will enjoy this conversational but information-packed introduction to astronomy and stargazing, which includes the achievements of the great scientists, the history of space exploration, the story of our solar system, the myths behind the constellations, and how to navigate the night sky. Whimsical color illustrations on every page and handy definitions and sidebars help engage younger readers and develop their interest. The special star wheel helps locate stars and planets from any location at any time of year. This is the third in Black Dog & Leventhal's successful series including The Story of the Orchestra and A Child's Introduction to Poetry.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Nana Lynn
I purchased this for my Granddaughter who is 7 years old. She is very interested in the earth & sky. This book is perfect for us. This book will become an heirloom in our family.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Nice book!
I bought this book for my 5 year old as we begin to explore the world of astronomy. She loved it from the very beginning.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great for kids, but adults will get a kick out of it also!
Bought this for my daughter and while she loved it, I loved it more. Great illustrations and cartoons with a light-hearted feel. If you want something that you'll enjoy sharing with your kids, this is the book. It makes learning for and you'll find out some things you either forgot, or never knew in the first place. Great fun for all!



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A Child's Introduction to the Night Sky
Excellent book. I purchased this as a thank you gift for my ring bearer, who is fascinated with the stars. I looked through the book and found it to be quite interesting.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Beautiful book - out of this world
My 6 year old son had a class project about the night sky, I purchased this book and was blown away by the detail and artwork, the viewing wheel was a great addition to the book used to great effect by young and old. I gave the book to his Teacher and she was so impressed with it that she used it as a teaching resourse and took inspiration for some lessons out of it, if you only buy one book for your child on astronomy let it be this one
