There are no awards for this book. This book would be good for kindergartners and first graders since the text is very very basic, but it still has decent information about the moon. This book basically just tells small facts about the moon, like there is no air on the moon so people, animals and

 plants can't live there. It also informs the reader why you see different parts of the moon at night and it gives you a little activity to do so you understand why certain nights you see a full moon while other nights you only see a sliver of it. This book deals with science and facts about the moon. For kindergartners I would read this book if I do a science/space lesson. I would have the reading part of the classroom very space oriented with pictures of planets and stars and just make it seem all spacey. We would read this book and once we finished we will examine the moon each night afterwords and see the different moon phases. For the first graders I would do the same thing with them, but instead of examining the moon they will pick a fact about the moon and they will write a sentence or two about the moon and draw a picture and we will put it together to make a moon book.

I really found this book to be informational, for young readers and even for someone at my age. This book was packed with information about the moon, but in a way that was interactive with the reader. The author also uses experiments for the readers to do at their homes in order to gain a better

 understanding about the phases of the moon. The author also gave great instructions for the readers in order to perform the experiments. I loved the visuals that were throughout the book, as well as the information that I read and learned.
