What the Sun Sees, What the Moon Sees

Quick shipping. Boys absolutely loved this book. It's creative and organized in a way to keep kids interested. We purchased after reading this book at the library.

I love this book. We first encountered this at the public library, and had to have it for my daughter's home library. Beautiful, vivid illustrations. Simply language. My 18-month-old daughter and I enjoy this book. I love the format, too, where you flip the book over half way through to do the opposite point of view. There was a book "I am My Mommy / I am My Daddy" just like this that I loved when I was little, but couldn't find that one anywhere.

My four-year-old loves this imaginative book, and so do his father and I. We are fond of Nancy Tafuri's style of illustration and have some of her other books, all of which we enjoy. I think flipping the book over to read about the sun/moon fascinates our son. The comparison of what goes on in the daytime and nighttime stimulates imagining of what our "daytime" places are like at night. The book is short and simple, but sometimes that's what we want -- especially when we want a short bedtime book! Overall, this book is pleasant and soothing, not spectacular but attractive, fun, and definitely worth reading.

This book was read in my class, by me to 4 and 5 year olds. They liked the large size and colorful pictures. When the book is over, just flip it over and find out what the moon sees. Two books in one! A great deal.
