    I bought this on a whim because my daughter likes saying good night to the moon. It was one of five books I purchased in one order, and the rest remain unread because my two-year old daughter immediately picked this one as the one she wanted read - over and over and over again. She can recite practically the whole thing and so strongly identifies with the little girl in the story she likes to pretend to be Monica (or she gets confused and thinks she IS Monica). It's a cute story and the fold-outs are unusual and compelling, but it's one of those rare books that have struck a deep chord with her - and that I can tolerate reading over and over and over again.

    I have 20-month old twins who absolutely adore this book. We got it out from the library and they've wanted me to read it to them every day... many times a day. They love the pictures and how the pages flip up or down. They are fascinated with the moon and the stars. They may not exactly understand yet what this book is about; however, it gets them interested in reading. We own many of Eric Carle books and this is one of my (and their) personal favorites. It really is timeless. A great story! I would be careful letting your really young children play with this one alone since the pages are thin and easily ripped. It is one to read to them and put away after you're done.

    This book is the beautiful story of a dad who goes to all lengths for his daughter - he actually gets the moon for her! In typical "Carle fashion" this book expands (as the moon appears to do), the pages ascend ever higher (as the moon ascends in the sky). As with Carle's other stories you don't just hear them and see them - you feel them. I love the motion in this book. The tenderness of the gift from father to daughter and the representation of the child's joy in playing with the moon. This story has a wonderful opening, fantastic struggle and beautiful ending. I especially enjoy how the moon itself is a character in the book.

    I think this is definitely one of my favorite books. I love books myself and I love my son now 18 months to read quality books. Every night since I've read this book to him, he points at the window at night time saying "Ba Ba" that's Chinese for father. It's simply so sweet. I've always loved Eric Carle's books but this one is my favorite. I will be running a playgroup soon and this is definitely my choice of book for father's day. Highly recommended. 5 start plus.

    This book is wonderful! My daughter received it at age 2 from my favorite Aunt who always did give the best books! This has allowed our family library to grow and become what it is. My daughter was, as so many children are, fascinated with the moon. Every night she would get so excited "boom boom" she would say and point. We were much too tall until I got down on the floor at her level did I realize what it was she pointed to. Then the comprehension that it is the same moon takes about another few months as my daughter had to call her grandfather each night with excitement to what "her Moon" was doing and he should come over and see this. Eric Carle does the most extraordinary job through all his books letting the child see through the wonderful pictures and learning these simple concepts, that children must learn. This is an excellent book for any child and one of my very favorites as that two year old has turned ten, and her younger sister and brother also have gotten a wonder message and many hours from this book! An excellent choice!

    My two and a half year old son loved this book too apart from Eric Carle's The Very Hungry Caterpillar. This book speaks volumes for little ones - it is no longer wishful thinking for them to "get at" the moon. Yet another gem from Eric Carle and I am glad that his book did not disappoint. Books like this are rare because it takes a gifted writer to perceive things from a child's view and most of us have grown so up and old to ever remember what it was like and what mattered to us when we were children.

    My daughter's Kindergarten teacher recommended this book because it seems the kids really take to it. My daughter, who is 4, said it's a really, really funny book. I personally love the large format of the hardback edition, because the foldout ladder after all has to be very big, to reach the moon.

    When I was a child, I loved the moon and I always wanted the moon so I loved this book a lot. It really is a good book for kids. Eric Carle is a really good author, I love his books. They are very well written!
