Reach for this book when your child starts noticing the world above them and begins asking why the moon seems to change or disappear. It is the perfect tool for a child experiencing their first 'scientific awakening,' transitioning from seeing the moon as a magical character to understanding it as a physical, predictable object in our solar system. The book expertly bridges the gap between bedtime story and educational text, fostering a sense of wonder while providing clear, factual answers. Written for the early elementary age group, the book explains complex concepts like lunar phases, gravity, and the moon's surface in accessible, bite-sized chapters. By presenting the moon as a constant yet changing companion, the author nurtures a child's natural curiosity about the night sky. Parents will appreciate the clear layout and vocabulary support, making it an excellent choice for a shared reading session that encourages critical thinking and observation skills.
