Here are two astronomy books for young readers (8+ years):
Stargazing for Beginners £5.00 plus postage (or £4.00 on a CD in pdf format)
This small book explains what you can see in the night sky, including the Sun, the Moon, stars and some of the planets. It also provides simple, practical advice on how to best view these heavenly bodies with the naked eye or binoculars. The book is fully illustrated and includes several star charts. It would be very useful for a young reader wishing to get a clear introduction to astronomy, in very easy steps.
Out of this World £4.00 plus postage (or £3.00 on a CD in pdf format)
This book introduces young readers to space travel and astronomy in story form. It contains three tales about children involved in such activities, with their grandfather on hand to explain the science involved.
Both books can be purchased for the bargain price of £8.00 plus postage (or £6.00 on a CD in pdf format)
