Jace Gwinn ，

This books is very engaging because the pages and illustrations literally come out of the book。 The moon is very big so how will Papa get the moon？

Such a beautiful book。 I， too， wish to dance with the moon。

Miciah ，

Love the illustrations and the open-the-flap options。 A good one for a moon or space themed storytime。

Rosemary ，

Love this book。

Mandy ，

Voorgelezen voor een deel van de klas！ Een heerlijk boek waarin bij je ze lekker actief mee kunnen doen。 Bladzijden die je kunt uitvouwen。 De kinderen waren enthousiast！ Simpel en mooi

Alicia Evans ，

For: readers looking for a whimsical book with an emphasis on father-daughter relationships。Possible red flags: some may find the ending too abrupt or confusing。

Andrea ，

A super fun story， but the execution of so many things to fold out makes this difficult to read with any child under the age of 3。

It's a decent enough little story about a girl who wants her father to get the moon for her， and somehow he does。 It's a decent enough little story about a girl who wants her father to get the moon for her， and somehow he does。 。。。more

Firstly， I do love all pictures were created by Carle's hands。 It's incredible and amazing and every time I saw those， yeah I knew it very well that Carle's artworks。 Secondly， when read it repeatedly， so many perspectives came out from my mind and we could discuss about it。 That's why I love so much with Carle's book。 Firstly， I do love all pictures were created by Carle's hands。 It's incredible and amazing and every time I saw those， yeah I knew it very well that Carle's artworks。 Secondly， when read it repeatedly， so many perspectives came out from my mind and we could discuss about it。 That's why I love so much with Carle's book。 。。。more

Boy was this a good book I really loved all the illustrations and the creativity of this book。 The imagination of this book is so amazing and has kids minds moving。 When the daughter asks her papa to go fetch the moon he tries everything he can to do so。

This book is one I randomly selected。 It is about a child asking her papa to give her the moon。 The father plays along and climbs a ladder。 He reaches the moon， but he tells her the moon is too big。 It also is kinda informational book about how the moon changes。 Her father gets her the moon when it is smaller， but she threw it into the air and it disappeared。 Then one night it started to appear and it grew and grew over the days。

This book is truly beautiful。 It's about a little who wants to get the moon to play with her and her father had help her wish came true。 Although after that the moon disappeared， it re-appear once again in the sky。In my opinion， the style of drawing is a little bit odd， maybe a down grade to this book。 But overall I love the idea and the storyline。 I was touched how big the love the father has for his daughter so that he could try everything to get the moon for her。 Furthermore， the story also t This book is truly beautiful。 It's about a little who wants to get the moon to play with her and her father had help her wish came true。 Although after that the moon disappeared， it re-appear once again in the sky。In my opinion， the style of drawing is a little bit odd， maybe a down grade to this book。 But overall I love the idea and the storyline。 I was touched how big the love the father has for his daughter so that he could try everything to get the moon for her。 Furthermore， the story also told the story of the circle life of the moon， which is kinda fascinating with that easy explanation。 。。。more

3。5/5This is a children’s picture book about a little girl who begs her father to get the moon for her so she can play with it， but unfortunately the moon is too big， so he must wait until it gets smaller to capture it for her。

We always say that fathers will go above and beyond for their children。 Well， in this book， this phrase is definitely expressed in the story。 A young girl happens to notice the moon and tries to reach for it， but it is too far away。 So， she asked her Papa， "Papa， please get the moon for me？" Her father grabbed the tallest ladder he can find， and set it up on top of a very large mountain， then climbed ALL the way up just to reach the moon。 Once he got there， he told the moon that his daughter wan We always say that fathers will go above and beyond for their children。 Well， in this book， this phrase is definitely expressed in the story。 A young girl happens to notice the moon and tries to reach for it， but it is too far away。 So， she asked her Papa， "Papa， please get the moon for me？" Her father grabbed the tallest ladder he can find， and set it up on top of a very large mountain， then climbed ALL the way up just to reach the moon。 Once he got there， he told the moon that his daughter wanted to play with the moon。 Unfortunately， the moon was too big to take home; but the moon told papa that he can wait until she gets smaller。 Once the moon got smaller， papa grabbed the moon and gave it to his daughter。 Monica was so happy and jumping in joy， but she realized that it was still getting smaller and smaller， until it eventually disappeared into thin air。 The next day she noticed the moon in the sky and it was growing and growing。 This is such a fascinating and adorable book that proves that fathers will always try to go above and beyond for their children。 Papas make the world turn！ 。。。more

This was another new-to-me Carle book that I enjoyed much more than "Pancakes， Pancakes。" It's got gorgeous fold out illustrations that will especially delight younger readers and is absolutely perfect for a bedtime routine。 It's a quiet book about the cycle of the moon， with very poetic undertones。 I love this book for sleepytime - so sweet。 This was another new-to-me Carle book that I enjoyed much more than "Pancakes， Pancakes。" It's got gorgeous fold out illustrations that will especially delight younger readers and is absolutely perfect for a bedtime routine。 It's a quiet book about the cycle of the moon， with very poetic undertones。 I love this book for sleepytime - so sweet。 。。。more

Mort's Kids ，

First of all， I'm not sure this is exactly an astronomically accurate text。Secondly， I'm not sure Papa should be quite so accommodating。 But， whatever works for Monica， the moon， and the rest of the fam。 I can't judge them too harshly since it seems like everyone consents。 First of all， I'm not sure this is exactly an astronomically accurate text。Secondly， I'm not sure Papa should be quite so accommodating。 But， whatever works for Monica， the moon， and the rest of the fam。 I can't judge them too harshly since it seems like everyone consents。 。。。more

I liked this book because of the imagination the little girl had and how her papa supported her huge imagination。 I also enjoyed the illustrations and artwork provided to go along with the text。 The vibrant use of color really caught my eye。 I think this book would be good to read to younger students because of their growing， wild imaginations。 It teaches them that is good to have an imagination， yet also understand the reality we live in too。 I think this book deserves a 4 star rating because i I liked this book because of the imagination the little girl had and how her papa supported her huge imagination。 I also enjoyed the illustrations and artwork provided to go along with the text。 The vibrant use of color really caught my eye。 I think this book would be good to read to younger students because of their growing， wild imaginations。 It teaches them that is good to have an imagination， yet also understand the reality we live in too。 I think this book deserves a 4 star rating because it had a good moral to the story as well as an interesting storyline。 。。。more

Uffff

Imaginative and whimsical。 The love of a father who goes to great lengths to please his child。 I like that Carle’s books lend themselves easily to educational topics， in this case the phases of the moon。

Tanu ，

Eric Carle is a genius。 What a unique way to tell a story。 Loving his writing style。

Dawn Tessman ，

The story of a young girl’s wish to play with the moon and how her papa turns that dream into reality。 I loved the charm of this little book along with its sense of adventure and its fun， interactive book design with pop-ups and fold-out pages; but， when I reached the end， it felt as though the story had been cut short。 Still， quite creative。
