Meet Me at the Moon by Gianna Marino - ADVISABLE


Marino, Gianna Meet Me at the Moon. Viking (Penguin), 2012. $16.99. PICTURE BOOK. 

When
Mama the elephant has to leave on a journey to ask the skies for rain, she leaves her baby, Little One, behind. Little One is concerned about being left alone and Mama reassures him/her that even though they are apart they will always be connected.

This is such a touching story of the bond a mother and child share. The pictures of the African Sahara are beautiful, bright and help to tell the story.
