astrology, anyone? i'm looking for a kids book, glow in the dark if poss.

[AitchTwoOhOneTwo]

there's one on amazon but apparently it's better for yanks than jocks.

Astronomy or star signs Aitch? :)

Ooh, my boy had a glow in the dark book about space. Wait a sec.

Here you go. It takes a fair bit of 'charging' for each glowy page to work, but is quite fun when it does.

hahaahahaha what an ARSEHOLE. yes, definitely astronomy.

oooh, that looks good, marmite. would it be good for camping? (and, what do you mean charging?)

Glow in the dark only glows in the dark if it's been exposed to light. Books tend not to get much light on their pages while they're sitting on the shelf! So you'd have to train the torch on the glowy pages (every other one has glow in the dark stuff on I seem to remember) for a bit until they glow by themselves. Then you can turn the torch off and go 'oooooh!'

gotcha. i was being dense again, thought it was electrical...

Don't forget The NIght Sky app if you have iphone.

Cant wait to try mine out properly when we next camp.

oh right... i wonder if android have something similar? although i imagine keeping battery going will be a pain over this trip.

there's a fab book by Klutz called guide to the galaxy - make your own telescope inside.
