Bookroo's summary

When Mama Elephant leaves to summon rain, Little One is left with questions and fears. Who will care for him? Mama promises her love will be felt in the sun's warmth and heard in the wind's song. As Little One waits for the rains to bring them together under the moon, he learns that love transcends distance. This tender tale of reassurance and connection invites readers to explore the bonds that endure even when apart. Will Little One find comfort in Mama's promises until they reunite?

A heartwarming love story between mother and child When Mama Elephant must leave Little One to ask the skies for rain, the young elephant is worried. Who will care for Little One? Who will sing Mama’s special songs? When will she return?

Exquisitely illustrated and supremely comforting, Meet Me at the Moon is a mother and child love story to be enjoyed again and again.
