Beschrijving

A user-friendly introduction.  
Interspersed throughout the text are activities that, for the most part, children can perform without adult supervision.  
 
Nighttime sky watching is discussed and children are given directions to make a handy star scope.  
In a section on nocturnal animals, students are introduced to echolocation of bats.  
There is also brief mention of daytime vs. nighttime hunters.  
 
Throughout, sidebars and dialogue balloons offer many interesting factoids.  
 
However, there is some unevenness. Owls have their own chapter and activity while all desert life is summed up in one section.  
 
Illustrations, looking amateurish at times, are nevertheless descriptive and helpful.  
 
The Night Book will be useful for young researchers, browsers, and even teachers looking for simple activities that involve readily available materials.
