I was for the longest time not getting into the eclipse excitement but when the day finally came, I decided to look up and experience it for myself. This fun picture book was full of eclipse facts to get readers about this rare occurrence including activities and silly trivia of states on its path. There's also a list of future eclipse dates as well as glasses to safely view it.

Excellent introduction to the concept of a solar eclipse. For those who are anticipating the one coming up in August 2017, it shows how the eclipse will move across the sky and how visibility will vary according to location. Nicely illustrated. Accompanying activity book is also available.
