This was one of my favorites

Such great illustration a d creative story.

A pretty good book

This book is an interesting and intriguing fairy tale that many children will love. It is illustrated beautifully...the pictures almost could tell the entire story. This book could also be used to teach what the man-in-the-moon actually is (the rocky surface of the moon), and to teach about the phases of the moon (In the book, he actually "turns the lights off" in the wrong order...a waning moon will have its left side lit, not the right.). I enjoyed reading it as an adult, and I would highly recommend this book for all ages.

AN EXCELLENT STORY FOR ALL AGES FROM CHILDREN TO SENIORS

WHETHER YOU ARE A CHILD ENJOYING A FAIRY TALE OR AN ADULT READING IT TO A LOVED ONE. YOU WILL ENJOY IT AS MUCH AS THE CHILD IT WILL LIFT YOUR SPIRITS VERY HIGH AND PUT A SMILE AND A LAUGH IN YOU. THE PICTURES ARE SO FANTASTIC THEY ALMOST TELL THE WHOLE STORY IF YOU DON'T READ IT, AND WORDS JUST MAKE IT MORE SPECTACULAR. I CAN NOT RAVE ENOUGH ABOUT THIS BOOK. I AS AN ADULT HAVE READ AND REREAD THIS BOOK MANY TIMES JUST FOR ME! I HOPE EVERYONE YOUNG AND OLD TRY TO GET A COPY OF THIS TO READ FOR THEMSELVES AND TO OTHERS.
