I am a librarian, an amateur astronomer, and a parent. In the past month I have reviewed no fewer than 11 (eleven) books on the subjects of meteors, asteroids, and comets, written for young readers. This one is the best of the lot. Design is clean and attractive. The book features excellent illustrations, lists, and charts. Text is easy to read. Information is more complete and accurate than any of the others. The detail is sufficient but not overbearing, Lots of interesting trivia asides. Best for upper elementary(grades 5-6)and intermediate school students. Not too advanced for a smart 4th grader, and not too simple for an adult. This one gets both my thumbs up!
