This volume is not too bad, perfect for the young budding scientists to get their basics from. The pictures from space would probably be better today and a couple of subjects are out of date but mostly a very helpful book for starting a kid out on the mysteries of space and the planet Earth.
The article related to these illustrations wasn't bad, it was just how the sun helps to produce food. I just find that the little sparkly magic photosynthesis stars make the cows look like they are riddled with gunshot wounds or parasites. It doesn't make the food that appetizing either.
