The Children’s Moon
Written by Judy Cook; Illustrated by Sonia Nadeau; Edited by Friesen Press Editor
In a marriage of science and whimsy, The Children’s Moon is a delightful resource for home and school learning. 0-11 years. During the day, when you look up at the blue sky, you will see the sun, sure, but wait. What’s that? The moon too? The moon and the sun don’t often appear together in the sky, but when they do, something special happens. We are inspired. We bask in the glow they create. We dance and play together under the magical light. Astronauts teach us that there are no borders when Earth is viewed from outer space, and that it is important for people all over the world to stay united on our journey to the future.
