Not many people I know now know that I had a fascination with star gazing when I was little. I did, and I still keep this book today, even though it is old and worn.

I don't even remember who gave it to me, but I love it. It is a good guide, and I refer to it from time to time, especially during the summer when there is really nothing to do. The images are easy enough for a child to understand, but full of enough information that you really do learn something about the night sky and planets. Even the inside covers have star charts. It is also a very user friendly book, containing an easy-to-navigate table of contents and index.

It is full of a ton of information, and yes... my copy says that Pluto is a planet, so I will keep this for a long time. It's funny that I still have it.
