Hahaha... my nephew, who is in 10th grade, had to do a report on the planet Neptune. He had the brilliant idea of asking his astronomy buff uncle (aka me) for some good sources. He was moderately appalled when I recommended two books to him, in addition the the NASA/JPL web site. (I even, thanks to the Internet, verified that the books were available at his local public library. You'd think I'd recommended the thumbscrews when I told him, "They have a copy in the reference department. Just ask a librarian.")
