From the publisher

The moon is a small hello in the sky. Shining bright as it passes us by. Introduce little ones to the wonder of the natural world with Our Friend Moon, a beautiful, circle-shaped ode to the moon. Like friends and family throughout a day, a month, or a year, the moon cycles between presence and distance. Hello. Goodbye. Hello again. Even though the moon is sometimes out of sight, it always returns with its warm embrace. An appreciation for nature begins with noticing. After reading Our Friend Moon, children will love spotting the moon in the sky, pointing to it, and sharing their observation with loved ones. They can even learn the scientific terms for the moon’s phases from the diagram in the back of the book!
