Moon: A Peek-Through Picture Book

I bought the book for the illustrations and was surprised to see how educational it is as well. A great read and a book to put on the "keep forever list" when the kids are grown.

this book is adorable. My almost 2-year-old absolutely loves the moon so this was a great addition to her book collection. The illustrations in this book are absolutely beautiful.

For the child who loves the moon.

My little moon loving 3 year old loves the pictures. The phases aren't accurate but they aren't explained that way either so I don't think it's confusing. It goes around the world with the different lunar phases and she enjoys pointing out the animals and their sounds as we go.

Wonderful book and illustrations! I gave this book and newborn pj's as a shower gift

In my opinion this book would be an easy 5 stars (something I rarely give) based off the stunning artwork alone. This, followed by the moon peeking through here and there makes for an appealing book for anybody, especially babies and toddlers. What dings a star is the completely random and incoherent storyline that accompanies the book. Now, I am aware that this is a book meant for very young humans, most of whom don't know more than a handful of words or sounds but still - the story has nothing to do with the moon and makes no sense at all. The writer just threw some rather basic rhymes together and called it good. For example, the text starts off asking a question along the lines, "Have you wondered about the beauty of the moon?" and then continues to mention nothing about the moon whatsoever and just rhymes about different (adorable) nature scenes all over the world in different environments (mountains, prairies, tundra, etc.,). Also, the order of the moon phases is quite random and doesn't actually follow the correct waxing and waning we are used to in real life (seems like a pretty simple thing to get right). For example, in the middle of the book, the "new moon" jumps straight to a "full moon" the following page... I don't know why this happens and there is no explanation in the text. Kind of weird! Get the book because of the beautiful art. Overall a nice attempt. The art alone is reason enough to flip through the book each night with the little one. You can make your own words!

This has quickly become a favorite book of the whole family! It’s so beautiful and well written. I am now on the hunt for more books by this author!

Super nice book. We all love the cut outs and illustrations. The wording is so-so.

Avevo già la tradizione in italiano per cui sapevo della bellezza delle illustrazioni. Mi è spiaciuto non vedere la luna glitterata

とにかく絵が綺麗で、月も満ち欠けがあり素敵な絵本！親子でお気に入りの1冊になりました(^^)

All I wanted was a book that followed the moon. And I finally found one. This is adorable

This looks a lovely book for my Grandson. He is learning about the Moon at school and loves it. The book is a really good quality Hard Back Cover book. Delivery was prompt and courteous. Packaged really well.

I love this board book! Nice illustrations. A great bed time story especially for younger babies/toddlers.
