"""A fun way to learn about our nearest neighbor, our own moon. Enjoyed the simplicity and the delight of the artwork. I recommend this for anyone who loves the night and the day sky. There are many treasurers to behold if one looks up. This book will help do just that."" -Brenda Branchett, a founding member of the Ancient City Astronomy Club ""Whimsical and beautifully illustrated, this engaging story will make children see the moon in a whole new light. The perfect companion book to The Rocket Ship Bed Trip."" -J.L. Bond, Author of The Primortus Chronicles "" Sometimes we find brilliance and excitement in an author where it almost slips up on us. Simple words and pictures, cleverly designed with great care, can convey mood, information and pure enjoyment. The author has a gift for telling a story with concise and beautiful language, aided by lovely drawings by an equally gifted illustrator."" -Rosamond Parrish, Author and illustrator, Lincolnville, A Sketchbook Journal of St. Augustine's Historic Neighborhood"
