"""K. J. Field's The Night Luna's Light Went Out is a marvelous book that has multiple layers to it. Through portraying the interdependence of Earth and the moon, Field sheds light on important issues including the importance of friendship and appreciation. Luna's erroneous thoughts concerning her insignificance and the eventual realization of her worth contain a lesson for many of us."" - Afifa Raisa for Readers' Favorite ""From start to finish this book is delightful and inspiring. There is science, there is sadness, there is loss, discovery, and renewed self worth. The illustrations are enchanting and will engage the non reading child. This is a marvellous story for teaching science, and self esteem too. I recommend this book wholeheartedly."" - Murielle, Amazon reviewer"
