Why read it?

I absolutely love reading this book to my son. No matter how many times we read it, he keeps asking for us to read it again! He went through a phase (pun intended!) where he was obsessed with the moon and wanted to learn all about it.
This book is educational and teaches kids about the moon, but it is still a fun and engaging read with adorable illustrations.
From Brooke's list on fun and educational books for kids.
For a laugh-out-loud romp through our corner of the universe, check out this hilarious narrative about Moon’s close friendship with Earth. These two friends will stick close together forever! Full of fun facts and even funnier puns, this autobiography of Earth’s best rock is sure to teach you something new and make you laugh along the way. I especially enjoy non-fiction delivered with a dose of humor, so this is one of my favorite space-related read-alouds.
