From School Library Journal
PreSchool-Grade 1. A gentle story of a magical moment shared by a grandmother and her grandson, Jonas. On a nighttime stroll beneath the full moon, the boy wonders aloud what the full moon is full of. A red squirrel votes for nuts, a cow for milk and cream, a robin for worms, a frog for flies, a bear cub for honey, and a firefly for light. Quietly yet effectively, the tale builds to the final, most important question: What does Jonas think the full moon is full of? Moore's watercolor and colored-pencil drawings realistically capture the peace of a quiet walk in the moonlight as they winsomely illustrate the youngster's imaginary conversations with the various animals. They extend the story with fanciful depictions of a sky full of floating cows, a frog resting his feet on Saturn's rings, milk and cream pouring from a trap door in the moon, and the bright green striped pajama-clad boy enjoying the zero gravity of outer space. The large format and full-page illustrations make this an excellent choice for storytimes.?Peggy Morgan, The Library Network, Southgate, MI
