I'm going to use a book called Visual Astronomy as an example here. It has a lot of nice, colorful pictures and explanations, and it has a great table of contents so you can look for a topic that's most interesting to you.

That sounds like a good book. What other tools should I get to learn more about the night sky?

How about a telescope or some binoculars? If you’re going to look at the moon and stars, it's important to use a telescope, so you can magnify the image, which makes it easier to see details. For objects in the night sky, binoculars are also good, but a telescope can be more powerful.

That's great. How do I learn where to find the constellations?
