How The Moon Regained Her Shape
"The book is lavishly illustrated, by Ben Hodson... Very worthwhile are the instructions at the end of the book on how to observe the Moon, and projects for creating a lunar calendar and directions for illustrating the cycles of the Moon in the night sky. One would hope that the book would motivate young readers and their parents or teachers to learn more about the Moon, including following the space mission in progress and planned." --Science Books & Films"This simply written book is an excellent example of how to help children understand and overcome bullying. Self-esteem is positively addressed in a strong, delightful tale. This unique way to explain moon phases has long been part of Native American folklore. Fantastic artwork covers the pages with layered paper illustrations dressed in Native American design and colors. Teachers and readers can check Sylvan Dell's website for kid-friendly astronomy sites that extend the material in this book. The book is sure to be checked out many times, so make it a part of the elementary classrooms and libraries." --Children's Literature Review"This is a tale for all ages. My five-year-old and eight-year-old both loved the story and plan to read it again and again. The book creators and publisher have produced an invaluable instrument in children's education." --Front Street Reviews"I would recommend this story. It is one of seeing yourself as who you were created to be. It could be a great springboard for discussion on different cultures and beliefs, how to gain confidence, and how to see ourselves through the eyes of God." --The Old Schoolhouse Magazine"This simply written book is an excellent example of how to help children understand and overcome bullying.
