Bookroo's summary

A curious raccoon yearns to explore the mysteries of the night, from meeting an owl to discovering if the moon is a rabbit. His mother insists he waits for the full moon. As the moon grows, so does his anticipation. What wonders will the night reveal when the special evening finally arrives?

From the publisher

There was once a little raccoon who wanted to go out in the night - to know an owl, to see if the moon is a rabbit, and to find out how dark is the dark. But his mother said, “Wait. Wait till the moon is full.” So the little raccoon waited and wondered, while the moon got bigger and bigger and bigger. Until at last, on a very special evening, the moon was full.
