"By Carolyn Curtis Illustrated by Alison Jay
Embark on a dreamy, nighttime jaunt with a young boy and the moon. Overcoming a fear of the dark and discovering the world at night lives at the heart of this poetic tale. Includes notes about the moon and plants and animals that thrive in the wee hours
I Took the Moon for a Walk reads like a love letter to the twilight hour. The descriptive language encourages outdoor exploration and knowledge of community. The moon and nocturnal animal facts at the end share nature knowledge with young listeners. This book is a twist on a bedtime story — its beautiful illustrations help tell a tale of adventure while the poetic language lulls little ones to rest and sleep."
