Mouse and the Moon Reviews
-
Little Harvest Mouse goes searching for the moon when that heavenly body disappears one dark night, discovering that Duck, Squirrel and Rabbit also have a special relationship with her. Each animal thinks the moon is his, and that she lives in a different place - in the pond, in the tree, in the mountains - but after they survive a storm together and the moon reappears, they realize that she belongs to them all...
British author/illustrator team M. Christina Butler and Tina Macnaughton, who are probably best known for their series of picture-books about
Little Hedgehog and his friends, return to the sweet anthropomorphic animal story in Mouse and the Moon. Pairing an engaging tale with cute illustrations, the book would make a good bedtime story for younger picture-book audiences who enjoy such fare. It has a bit of sparkle in the artwork, in the form of the moon, which will undoubtedly have added appeal for some. -
Aivan ihana tarina ystävyydestä! Kuvakirjassa kerrotaan hellyyttävästi myös siitä, kuinka vaikea välillä on hahmottaa hyvin abstrakteja asioita. Tarinaa voi katsoa myös siltä kantilta, että meistä jokainen voi käsittää saman asian monella eri tavalla. Löydän tästä kuvakirjasta niin paljon pedagogisia mahdollisuuksia! Kuvitus on todella kaunista ja herkkää; unisadutettava tosin tykkäsi kaikista eniten ihanasta kimalteesta muutamilla aukeamilla.

My kids really like it.

This book was really cute. I loved all the characters, the story is sweet and simple, and the illustrations are really pretty as well. The colors are awesome, and if you're a fan of glitter, the moon in the book is very sparkly and glittery! Full of texture too.

I love how the moon was glittery, glitter you can touch. And cute art
-
Adorable and fun
-
A very cute, quiet, heartwarming book about finding unexpected new friends with a little help from the moon. Perfect for bedtime.
-
Super adorable book about how others view the same thing and how that can bond us together in search of our commonalities.

Definite cheese. Still cute. A good book on friendship. Maybe even sharing or perspective--which is a bit much for a younger crowd, but who knows? Illustrations are adorable and my favorite part. Except for the glittery moon. Sorry. I just don't like glitter. I think it makes things look chintzy and cheap.
This could work well in a PJ storytime, or any other storytime when it's evening/night. -
Little Harvest Mouse lives all alone, but enjoys the company of his friend the moon. One gray and windy night moon disappears! Can Duck, Squirrel and Rabbit help find the moon?

Little Harvest Mouse's only friend, his very own moon, is missing one cold, windy night but while searching for it, the mouse makes new friends and discovers something very important about the moon.

mommy review:
Good story, nice illustrations but the glittery moon was too distracting. We'll try it again later
Alice review:
"Moon scratchy" -
A little trite & didactic, but I did like how all the different animals had a different mental "space" for the moon--in the pond, in the branches, on the mountain.
-
Very cute! I enjoyed the illustrations.
-

Mitä järkeä tehdä koskettelukirja jos kosketeltavaa on parilla sivulla ja sekin huono?
(Vähän parani 2-vuotiaana) -
Cute but sappy.

Little Harvest Mouse loves the moon and gets concerned when the moon disappears one night. Little Harvest enlists animal friends to help out in finding in. Super sweet story of friendship. The animal characters and glittery moon make this absolutely adorable.
