Focus on earth science Book

I know you can get an app for your mobile phone which, when you point it at the heavens, will tell you what you're looking at. But spotting the constellations should be a learning experience, not just an identifying one, IMHO. This lovely wee book by the author of Curious George is simple enough that kids can use it, and gives just the right amount of information for adults to feel like they're learning something which makes it just the thing for everybody. The drawings are sweet, the prose is light and sometimes funny, there are quizzes that help you learn, charts that help you identify the stars and constellations, and what's not to like about a book which ends thus: "We have now finished our trip through the starry skies. We can now find the constellations, and when we see a bright star at night we shall recognize it and know it by name and greet it as a friend." No app can claim to do that for you.
