Happy Birthday Moon


by Frank Asch
Published by Aladdin Paperbacks
Copyright 1982

Summary: When a bear discovers that the moon shares his birthday, he buys the moon a beautiful hat as a present.

Strengths: The illustrations do a very good job at reflecting the night time scenery without giving off a scary mood. They are also displayed in a frame setting which outlines the page and in the frame, there is a good variety of small and big illustrations.

Age level: Primary ( K-2)

Classroom Use: possesses determination- when you put your mind to something don't give up for example when the bear lost the moon's birthday present and he traveled across the rivers and mountains to get it back for him.
