My two-and-a-half year old daughter Rachel and I can't wait for the next Billy adventure...because we're having so much fun reading this one over and over. Billy traverses a forest full of wild animals, rockets to outerspace to haul the moon in for a repair, and travels to the Caves of Argo in search of treasures--all from the safety of his own backyard, basement and kitchen. Billy's imagination is rich with ideas...and the illustrations in the book reflect this. The illustrations have great color and are a visual expansion of the text...not just a literal reflection of it. It is such a joy to watch Rachel make new discoveries, or come up with her own ideas for Billy. It is one of the most interactive, stimulating books we have.
My Favorite Book

Approximately two months ago I gave a copy of The Moon Adventure to a co-worker for her 2 1/2 year old daughter. Now whenever "Mom" asks what book Fallon wants her to read to her, the reply is "my favorite book...The Moon Adventure"
Very creative!

Billy Books is a kid with a "wild" imagination. Fromthe first page, when Billy is camping out in his back yard, andimagines all kinds of animals lurking about, you are propelled into Bill's world! The moon disappears behind the clouds and he imagines that the "light bulb" has burned out. It's up to him to fix it! The book is very well written, and beautifully illustrated. My 4 year old girl really enjoys it. It's written in a way that makes it very exciting to read and to listen to. The pictures are very detailed, and capture the eye immediately. The book also has some lines in it the parents will enjoy too. I look forward to the next "Billy Books" adventure!
