I Took the Moon for a Walk

I have 7 grandchildren all of whom were fascinated with the moon. This was their favorite book when they were teeny tiny and I so enjoyed reading it with them. I especially appreciated the hard board pages. The story was simple but exciting for little ones, taking them on a quick adventure with the moon. One gets "lost" in the amazing artwork- you discover something you missed each time. I HIGHLY recommend this book as one of those that would e passed down from generation to generation.

This book was for my grand child. Very nice book !

tres jolies illustrations qui ont un style assez originals. C'est comme lire de la poesie. I love how the pictures look like cracked paint. the words have a rythimic quality that is very soothing.

Un libro stupendo, molto solido e le immagini sembrano dipinti. Consigliatissimo, non so se piacerà piu' a voi o ai vostri bambini. In entrambi i casi un ottimo acquisto.

I bought this book for my daughter's second birthday and two months on it is now one of her firm favourites. The book is larger than I expected for a board book which was a nice surprise and is good and sturdy so holds up well to the inevitable rough treatment from a two year old. The illustrations are lovely and the more you study each page the more you find to chat about together as you read the book. The story itself is just long enough to hold a little one's attention and the prose has a wonderful lyrical quality which really seems to appeal to a young child. My little girl is busily learning to speak at present and has asked to hear the story so often that she can now sit and recite parts of it herself as she looks at the pictures which gives her a lovely sense of achievement. I can see this book becoming one of those that is kept for years to come to serve as a reminder of these special early years.
