Reviews

Published in England as Where on Earth Is the Moon?, this book was inspired by a postcard of French illustrator Latyk’s work. Expanded into a picture book, his colors and imagery are no less enchanting. The story focuses on a little girl named Luna and her fascination with the moon. She gazes at it every night and wonders where it goes during the day. When she tries to stay awake and follow the moon’s path out of sight, she dreams up scenarios that Latyk imaginatively renders: the moon as a round and shimmering frozen lake (tracked by Luna and her stuffed bunny in a balloon) and the moon as a glowing sea creature (followed by Luna and her bunny in a submarine). Ultimately, she realizes the moon is there all the time, waiting until nighttime to shine in the sky and watch over her. Martin and Latyk have created a bedtime book that invites listeners to dream big dreams. Preschool-Kindergarten. --Abby Nolan
