Summary: Whata gift for grandkids
Review: I have tried it once on a young grandchild and his parents, with immediate success. It is an artful book that has the feature of allowing the reader (or the parent) to project the constellations using the flashlight and the cards that come with the book. There is mythology and entertainment at the same time. There may be more of these in some Christmas stockings this year. Besides, you come away with a cool flashlight.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: defective flashlight?

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: A Disappointing Purchase
Review: The cards and book that come with this are nice, but the credit card-sized flashlight is so flimsy and breaks so easily that it's not worth the money. My 7-year-old daughter recently purchased this book with her own money at a national park book store. The flashlight immediately broke, so she exchanged it for a second one. It didn't work either, but we didn't discover this 'til we'd already left the park and couldn't return it. My daughter was extremely disappointed and wished she purchased a different book with her hard-earned money.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: defective flashlight?
Review: This is a fabulous book, because it expands the notions of what a book can be, making it more fun and interactive. The storybook recounting the myth of the Andromeda constellation is enhanced by interactive cards and a flashlight that allow a kid to project the constellations on the wall of ceiling or a dark room. This makes it really accessible and entertaining. Very innovative.

A great gift book! I gave one to a six-year old friend and she loved it!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I love this book
Review: Wonderfully creative presentation. I love this book. It's great gift book for kids and adults!
