Description

The moon enchants even the youngest scientists, and this charming and lyrical story of moonlit antics—from a painter taking advantage of the unique glow to a pack of wolves howling at the bright orb to a mother rocking her sleeping baby—is sure to pique your students’ interest in moon lessons. Eileen Spinelli’s lilting verse is well complemented by Raúl Colón’s gorgeous, moonlight-soaked illustrations. Watercolor paintings were scraped and scratched to give the book a dreamy quality.
