[Melissa Nelson · Rating 2 out of 5]

Well written, concise descriptions of a few constellations. I would rate this book higher if rating the writing alone, but when it comes to a book about constellations the pictures matter most. The images in this book did very little to help my children locate these constellations in the sky.
