A simple introduction to the night sky and nocturnal animals.
I love the great photographs in National Geographic Kids books, and so do kids. These books are hot items in our elementary library. This one is fairly simple, aimed at the young kids and just beginning readers. The topic is not covered in any depth, so if you want anything beyond just a broad intro, you probably want to find a different book. This one is good for curious little ones who like photos.
