Hi Lauren,

While those sound nice and have a motor drive, I would really recommend that you go for an 8" dobsonian telescope - if the budget can stretch that far - if not try the classifieds (on this forum) for a second hand one or go down to a 6" dobsonian new.
He will get really lovely views of the planets and deep space objects and is more likely going to be using the scope for longer.

All the best,

Russ
