Customer Reviews

For the Love of the Moon....

This book is a must for anyone who has an affinity for the moon or who has children who love the moon. It's the perfect transition from "Goodnight, Moon" to stories from around the world with different connotations of the moon and with amazing illustrations. Definitely a book to grow with.

Art for Children.

I have just purchased this book for a friend of mine. We met at art college and both went into illustration. We both have small children so have given up on the illustation for a while. I choose this book to inspire her to maybe write her own childrens stories oneday. The book itself is very good, full of beautiful illustrations and verse. Something you can dabble in from time to time or spend hours immersing yourself in the diverse nature of the illustrations.
