Thanks David. We have done some stargazing from the backyard using my old 8x30s with limited success - fine for looking at the moon, but she's at the stage now that she wants to see more. She uses some free star mapping apps on my Galaxy Tab to search the sky and is fascinated by Saturn.

I am leaning towards the Andrews' 11x70 and a tripod adapter to take her the next step (think it would be suitable?) and I want to also show her how amazing the sky looks away from the lights of cities.

Thanks for suggestion of the Bee book - I will pick it up.
