Meet Me at the Moon

My son brought this book from his school library. When I read it, I fell in love and had to buy it. Came in good quality and hardcover are always the best, especially with children since they want to bend Everything.

This book was a favorite when my son (now 7) was 2-4. It made him feel all the feels. His tender little heart would fill with angst and he'd snuggle in closer every time the mama elephant was separated from her baby, and relief would wash over him each time they reunite at the end.We purchased this second copy to share with his baby sister, but when he opened the bubble envelope and saw it, he climbed into my lap with his 23 knees and elbows and we read it again together. He corrected me recently and told me that bazillion isn't a real number, (he's one of those kids) but this book deserves a bazillion stars.

My beloved mother passed recently and I used this book as a symbol of our love and our belief that we would one day see each other again. I read it to her at the funeral service, although we had been saying “I’ll meet you at the moon” to each other for a long time before she passed. I then placed the book in her casket. I have my own copy to always re-read, and remember...It is simply a lovely book that expresses the deep love between a mother and child...very, very touching.

Beautiful book for young children with a message about Love for all. Book arrived ahead of schedule in excellent condition with a personal note of thanks. Such a nice touch! Would highly recommend this seller.

My little one LOVES this book, and so do we. It is high quality and feels great in hand. The illustrations are beautiful, and the story is touching. Lots of animals and other things illustrated on each page so there are a lot of opportunities for teaching vocabulary as well.

The illustrations are beautiful, really stunning. The story is sweet, but a little sappy and falls short of conveying the deeper meaning that it seems to be striving for. Mama elephant loves baby elephant, but their land is dry, so Mama elephant must leave to ask the sky for more rain. Other members of the African plains look out for Baby elephant and Mama elephant tells Baby that he will know her love by the moon. After the rain falls, Mama elephant and Baby are reunited. The story is a sweet but awkward message about the depths of a mother's love. Despite the shortcomings of the prose, the beautiful illustrations make this picture book totally worthwhile.

My 3yr old granddaughter is absolutely in love with her little piggy. She gives it kisses and talks to it all the time. Haha.....she carries it everywhere, even puts it in her little baby stroller. It's a plactic/rubber material so she can't break it or hurt herself if it's dropped. I also purchased the little (My pink piggy bank) book that was recommended with it and am looking forward to story time (with her new baby piggy of course). I'm very happy with it..... nice quality and cute appearance. You never know what little one's are going to take to so this was a pleasant suprise. Would recommend

I love this book about a mother's love and it teaches about nature.

This book has it all - a great story, fantastic illustrations, and the power to keep little ones coming back for more. This is a nightly favourite with my two and four year old. The text is simple but very meaningful and touches on many key concepts that children seem to gravitate towards. It is about a little elephant who has to be separated for a short time from his mother. He asks how he will communicate with her and she gives him many abstract ways to know she is present. It sounds like a hard book for kids to digest, but the way it is written makes the concept of love very easy to understand in a beautifully, meaningful way. Love, love, love it! I am looking forward to this author's next piece of work.

Delightful story, thank you Gianna!

My 2 year old loves this book. It is a beautiful story and the pictures are very well done. We have even created our own version of the calling song.
