His book The Stars A New Way to See Them is highly recommended. If you ever wanted to learn the constellations, THIS is the book. As per the TFA, he replaces those crazy drawings of fish and gods, and the abstract line-connected dots, with cartoon like stick figure drawings that convey the images of the named constellations. His pictures greatly enhance your ability to find, and to learn, the constellations. I could only find one example of his constellations drawings to give you an idea of his approach [1]. [1]. http://codex99.com/illustration/the-stars.html http://codex99.com/illustration/the-stars.html I learned the constellations this way, and feel I never would have learned them otherwise. I've since bought a copy of this this book for each of my children and plan to do the same for my grandchildren if/when they arrive. Side note: What a joy it is to know the constellations! Once you know them, they cannot be unseen. You will recognize them at different elevations, or when they are tilted at an angle. You will see them appear and disappear with the changing seasons. When you travel, you will be surprised to find the familiar constellations in different places, or at different times of the night from what you are used to. It is one more part of the natural world that shouldn't be missed.
