About this title

From School Library Journal:

PreSchool-Grade 1-- Ms. O'Possum refuses to marry Mr. Raccoon, ``` For I only love the moon.''' Any number of his blandishments are rejected until the night that he sings his composition in praise of that heavenly object of delight. ```You've won my heart at last,' she cried./ `Mr. Raccoon, I'll be your bride./Let us be wed and let it be soon./ Everyone loves the moon.''' Admirers of owls and pussycats will like this romantic silliness, a lunar fantasy in verse. The jiggity-jog of the simple story and its repeated refrain will keep young listeners' attention. This makes a better lap book than story time selection because of its small pen-and ink and watercolor paintings. --Anna Biagioni Hart, Martha Washington Library, Alexandria, VA
