This book was sent to me by Running Press for review.
Overall, a great book for kids, I would even say that it would be a great book for adults also. It's easy to understand and read, and dives into enough detail in all the sections to give a fantastic overview for the topics that could be researched more on later. I think it's a great starting point.
It did loose some points for the following reasons:
• The traditional Chakra names, there were no pronunciation guides. For a kid's book, that's something that I would expect because the traditional names can be hard to pronounce. Even me as an adult, I have a hard time.
• For the wheel of the year holidays there were pronunciation guides but the pronunciation for Mabon was incorrect.
• Missing Pluto from the planet section on Astrology. Should have been included as it is included in Astrology.
