Summary:

This book is all about the night sky. It teaches about the different constellations that can be found at different times of the year. It's fun because the illustrations glow. So when you turn the lights off it's just like looking at the night sky. At the beginning it tells you how to use the book if you want to see the real constellations outside. At the end, it gives information about each constellation and the name.

Who would benefit from reading this book?

Anyone who is interested in learning more about astronomy and the different constellations would enjoy reading this book. It would also be beneficial for students learning about astronomy in class to use.

What problems/conflicts could this book potentially cause?

I can't see there being any sort of problem arising from reading this book. It is strictly an educational book about the stars.

My Reaction:

There aren't very many words in the book, so if someone is a beginning reader, they will like this book. I personally am not very interested in the different constellations, so this book wasn't very interesting to me. However, I think it's a very fun book for younger kids who want to learn more about the stars. I like the fact that the stars glow in the dark so that you can see what the different constellations actually look like.
