5.0 out of 5 stars Superb for kids, and good for adult sundial makers too, 1 Jan 2004
By Andy Dingley "andy_dingley" (Bristol, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
A collection of working sundial models to cut out and make. They're easy to make and they work well too.

A wide range of designs is squeezed into this book and they present a good sequence that explains their increasing complexity in an understandable order. I particularly liked the way that the theory pages can be re-stapled back together into a little booklet, preserving its information after the main book has been carved up for the models.

As well as a fun and interesting book for kids, this is also a good primer for budding adult diallists. My next sundial after reading this book was made from wrought iron!

5.0 out of 5 stars Book Review, 22 Jul 2009

A good value book - plenty of sundials to cut out and try. It wets your appetite to make others of your own design. Good for GCSE Astronomy students
