Moon

Follow the changing moon through its cycle and discover the animals living beneath its light. Peep-through pages connect the night sky with forests, oceans and distant landscapes, turning each new shape of the moon into another invitation to explore. Patricia Hegarty's lyrical words and Britta Teckentrup's illustrations make this a gentle meeting of bedtime atmosphere, wonder and real-world observation.

Age suitability and learning: Preschool (3-5), Primary (6-8). Rhythm and repeated language help younger listeners join in, while primary readers can explore the words and pictures more closely. Reading aloud supports listening, sound awareness and expressive speech; following the story encourages recall and talking about what happens next.
