Photography Guide For Kids is a slim, informative, quick read for kids who like to take creative pictures. I bought this for my son who is ten years old and has been snapping shots since he got his first Fisher Price camera when he was five. I noticed his interest in photography when he would ask to go for walks to test out his new camera on fenced in dogs barking at him and the buses going by. He read this book front to back in two days and took from it a bit more of an understanding in capturing mood, speed and creative portraits in different ways. I read this book myself and found it easy to understand the explanations on different cameras, film speed and black and white photos. Although not really a learning tool, I do feel this is a helpful guide to open up the minds of children interested in taking pictures. And the fact it's not a large text book, and is written on an age appropiate level makes it a good start for children who may not think they can learn all there is to learn about photography and may motivate them to capture their own memories and feelings in a creative way. And maybe they'll give the Nintendo a break.
This was an expensive product which was not up to date with current digital technology. I was tempted by the title, but found that it was passé for the 11 year old who received it. One would have expected something better with a National Geographic title and should give the date of publication with books such as this.
I purchased this book for my grandson. He is very satisfied with it and told me he learned a lot from it.Thank you.
It's an amazing book! My dad is a photographer, and even him needs this book! Isn't that weird? Love it!
Good my granddaughter is 8 years old and loves and had no problem understanding it
