BOOK-----Atlas of the Universe

This is a beautifully written & illustrated book. It was purchased for a very precocious 8 year old, to accompany a telescope, given as a Christmas gift. This is a book that will be relevent for years & can be consulted by all ages. I was very impressed & am happy we chose it.
