5.0 out of 5 stars We like this book, June 3, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: What the Sun Sees, What the Moon Sees : Nancy Tafuri (Hardcover, 1997) (Hardcover)

My four-year-old loves this imaginative book, and so do his father and I. We are fond of Nancy Tafuri's style of illustration and have some of her other books, all of which we enjoy. I think flipping the book over to read about the sun/moon fascinates our son. The comparison of what goes on in the daytime and nighttime stimulates imagining of what our "daytime" places are like at night. The book is short and simple, but sometimes that's what we want -- especially when we want a short bedtime book! Overall, this book is pleasant and soothing, not spectacular but attractive, fun, and definitely worth reading.

This book was read in my class, by me to 4 and 5 year olds. They liked the large size and colorful pictures. When the book is over, just flip it over and find out what the moon sees. Two books in one! A great deal.

3.0 out of 5 stars Just ok, September 14, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: What the Sun Sees, What the Moon Sees : Nancy Tafuri (Hardcover, 1997) (Hardcover)

I thought this book was rather pricy for such a short book. Each page contains only 1 sentance and the art work was just ok. It didn't capture my childs attention at all. The idea was good but the story lacked any climax. It was nothing to get excited about. The only high point in this book was the price.
