I Took the Moon for a Walk by Carolyn Curtis
4.0
3.5 stars - good
I liked this story, but I'm not in love with the formatting of this picture book. I found it rather difficult to take in, as the text was large and written separately from the illustrations, which were also large. I think I would have enjoyed it more had the text been found within the illustrations.
But it was a good story, with a great story line. I especially enjoyed the humor in the illustrations:The moon loses a shoe when floating over a tall church. And then the next two-page illustration shows the boy carrying the shoe . I really liked this detail. :-)
I also liked the information on the moon's phases and the critters to be found at night that was on the last two pages. :-)
