First sentence Good night Miss Sun Time for Mr Moon to awake Premise plot Mr Moon is a night themed picture book for young readers It isn t necessarily a book about children going to bed as it is a look at things the moon might look down and see during the course of a night It is whimsical not realistic so be warned Some parents may not appreciate the GHOSTS that are portrayed as roaming the earth and searching for a home My thoughts Didn t care for this one much On the one hand a few spreads of the illustrations were very nice I liked the train I liked the sheep I liked the raccoons On the other hand it is a bit too whimsical for my taste Text 3 out of 5Illustrations 3 out of 5Total 6 out of 10 0399549927 Brightly pulsing colors fill the pages of this picture book detailing what happens when Miss Sun heads off for a snooze and Mr Moon is in charge Not only does he help fluff up those sheep that are counted as someone tries to fall asleep but he watches over all manner of nighttime activities even keeping one young insomniac company for a while Each page shows Mr Moon looking on benevolently as everything goes as it should during the night After all that moving around and overseeing he is certainly ready for a good night s er day s sleep of his own This might be a good title to share at bedtime to prepare youngsters for rest time but it also shows an imaginative playful side to the moon 0399549927 I can t decide if I love the illustrations in this book or if I hate them Some pages are beautiful and some made me nauseous 0399549927 Mr Moon written and illustrated by Michael Paraskevas is a soothing read about what the moon does while out at night The way the story says goodbye to the sun in the beginning and welcomes it back at the end serves as nice bookends to a sweet story The illustrations will heighten children s appreciation of the tale from the moon wearing a nightcap to the stars sheep clouds insects animals and sounds that populate the night Even though it is dark out and silence would seemingly abound there is much to be done under the light of the moon The fact that the moon has a face makes it even nicer that it is enjoying the work it must do to turn night into day As the sun resumes its place high above the ground the moon yawns and rests until its work begins once which creates a nice potential discussion of how teamwork really does make the world go round. Book Mr. moonlight The colors and attention to detail on each two page spread will engage and enlighten young readers as well as their parents Night changing to day and day to night are ideas that are taken for granted but Paraskevas highlights how there is much to be done to make the transition smooth and the average person might just see magic happen if they stay up to wish on a shooting star or try to see if the cow will really jump over the moon Mr Moon is a whimsical read that dares readers to consider what is actually happening in the moonlight and how to take part in it until daylight once again sets in. Book Mr. moonfall Even though the story is solid and incorporates unique ideas it didn t hold the interest of my three year old quite as much as some other books however he did enjoy pointing at each picture and stating what it was The illustrations made up for where the story was slightly lacking Review originally posted on YABooksCentral.
