Something terrible is happening in a small, rural town! An adventurous little boy with a fantastical imagination discovers that the moon is getting smaller by the day, and a mysterious thief must be stealing it! It is up to him and his dog, Luna, to bring it back.
The Moon Thief, from Kristine Keck, ignites children's imaginations and prompts them to ponder the wonders of the world in which they live. When a courageous young boy becomes fascinated with the changing moon, he discovers a dark and mystifying land of shadows, dancing and laughter. It is here where he comes face-to-face with The Moon Thief.
At the story's end, readers will discover an easy-to-understand explanation and accompanying diagram to help teach children the real reasons why the moon changes, along with a fun calendar on which kids can track the moon’s phases.
With beautifully rich, painted illustrations by Heidi Barnett, The Moon Thief is ideal for children ages 6-12 and encourages them to read, explore and wonder!
