I would suggest you start with WikiPedia. Main page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moon http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moon Relationship with Earth: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Earth-Moon.PNG http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Earth-Moon.PNG Details of the orbit: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbit_of_the_Moon http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbit_of_the_Moon Relevant terms and parameters: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Orbit1.svg http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Orbit1.svg Then decide what you want to know next. And while I applaud your interest and enthusiasm, why didn't you simply use Google to get started? http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=the+moon http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=the+moon http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=the+moon+orbit http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=the+moon+orbit

[Edit] Thanks for the links. "why didn't you simply use Google to get started" Because I wanted a book I could sit down with and read. Wikipedia is nice and I have and will check out these resources, but a book, which someone took the time to write, often has more character and is more interesting than the web.

  OK, fair enough. I can't help with any suggestions for books though, sorry. You might try similar searches on Amazon. For reference, you'll probably get a better response if you demonstrate that you've already exhausted or rejected the usual sources of information. That way people won't track over the same territory needlessly.
