In this collection of models one tells the time from the sun during the day and the night. It shows why the moon has phases, why eclipses can occur and illustrates the reason for the pattern of spring and neap tides. Another mimics the motion of the sun and the moon across the sky on any day of the year and there is a moon globe which names all the seas and craters. Included also is a minibook which draws the ideas expressed by the models into a sound scientific framework.Jenkins, Gerald is the author of 'Sun Moon & Tides A Collection of Working Models to Cut Out & Glue Together', published 1997 under ISBN 9780906212769 and ISBN 0906212766.
