Great book for kids and their first telescope
Bought it for my 8yo son to go with his first telescope. Easy to understand, interesting, and engaging. Would fully recommend. Got as “used as new” and it didn’t disappoint.

gift for grandson
Bought this as a gift for my star gazing grandson. He seems to enjoy finding new things to look at through his telescope. He loves space and the stars, hopefully he will get enjoyment from this gift for a long time.

The PERFECT intro to astronomy book for kids (and parents too!)
As a passionate amateur astronomer, I am frequently asked by parents for an astronomy book recommendation for their children. Not only have I recommended this book frequently, but I have also personally gifted this book several times.The format of the book is easy to follow, with icons to indicate “difficulty” of each target, whether or not binoculars can be used to view, and icons to indicate the season in which the target is most easily viewed. Targets are also grouped by their “season.” (I’ve highlighted these great touches in my photo.)The author gives great tips for “getting started,” to increase your odds for success, that may not be obvious to the first time observer.The section about choosing a telescope and the parts of a telescope are also extremely helpful. Choosing the right telescope and then opening the box and assembling it can be intimidating. This section helps remove some of the mystery from that process.If you check out the page with contents, you can see that there is a wide array of targets appropriate for beginners, and the constellation maps are also well-presented to help the reader get comfortable with the night sky.This book is the perfect companion to that telescope you plan to give as a gift! The author has a whole series published in this easy-to-follow format, which makes it easy for the observer to continue to learn as their skills progress!There is definitely a reason this book is a #1 Best Seller!!
