If you want more than just pretty pictures this is one of the best I found last year. 'Illustrated Encyclopedia of the Universe' ISBN: 9781405333092 by DK.
In true DK style there is not a single white page with black type. Lots of colour and diagrams. Starts with basic principles and works its way through to Higgs Boson in a way that anyone with a high school education can follow. It even include star charts at the back.
If you want a hard read get the Cambridge University equivalent.
