What a Childrens' Book Ought To Be

Moondance is a simple story that children (mine at least) seem to absorb and enjoy. There is nothing frilly about this book compared to much of what is on the market, but the story embeds a few very positive messages for kids - appreciate what you have, be conscientious, reach out to others - in a way that is thoughtful and resonates with the human experience at all ages. The illustrations are simple but do a great job of telling the story for pre-readers. Moondance has become my 2.5-year-old's favorite book. There is more text in this book than in any of her other favorites, but she has memorized every line. There is definitely an intangible here that has grabbed her attention.

Meteorology in miniature

This book tells the story of a bear who wants to make friends with the moon. Over the course of the day, the bear observes and plays with the moon, clouds, fog, and rain. The bear is very well behaved- -he helps out around the house and eats his dinner when he is supposed to. He faces disappointment when he doesn?t always get what he wants, but he learns to appreciate what he gets. This is a delightful little story (about 750 words), that contains nothing likely to incite anxiety amongst youngsters.

Moondance..

I love this book because the pictures are great and I can relate. This story is about a bear that wants to dance with the moon but was scared to ask. So Bear asks the clouds, "Clouds, will you dance with me?" The clouds didn't answer so Bear went inside for bedtime. The next morning fog was outside and Bear was happy until the fog left. Bear cried and his friend Little Bird told him they went to work. Bear had work too, so they went inside. Next time Bear looked outside there was rain. Clouds sent rain to dance with Bear. After the rain left Bear wasn't sad. Did Bear ask moon to dance? Read the book to find out.

A great childrens book

This has always been one of my favorite chidrens books. I lovereading about bear and bird trying to dance with weather. The authoris very creative describing things such as when the fog comes bear thinks he dancing with the clouds. My little brother has also loved this, and he hardly likes any books. I also love it when the moon reflects of the puddle left by the rain, and he thinks he's dancing with the moon. This will always be one of my favorite chidrens books of all time.
