If you are a parent like me your kid’s educations aside from health is one of your top concerns. With the changes the schools are making to usher kids into the 21 century of education this is a must have desk reference to complete any home, public or private school library. Chris Cooper does an excellent job of keeping the reader engaged while educating at the same time. The vibrant colors and illustration are simple and easy to decipher.

As a former home school educator this book is an excellent, must have book. It is entertaining resource loaded with more information about the universe than I can remember learning as a child myself. It makes an excellent resource to follow your ever educational advancing child.

A superb summary of modern knowledge as far the universe is concerned. Though seasoned readers are unlikely to learn too many new things, there are still gems to be dug out here and there. I'd recommend this book wholeheartedly to anyone looking to brush up or get started with what astronomy has to offer us (as a science, and not that astrology babble).

I love it because it has almost all I want to know about the universe.

I found it easy and understandable since many -including myself- know nothing about astronomy.
