Moon by Steve Tomecek (illustrated by Lisa Chauncy Guida; National Geographic Kids, 2005; Jump into Science! series) introduces young readers to basic facts about the moon with cartoon illustrations featuring a fun and friendly cat.
It’s an easy to read picture book to read aloud, and not too dense. My three-year-old son and I read the entire book start to finish. The last pages give a sample science project: creating your own craters in a “moon” of flour. What a fun way to make this hands-on! Can’t wait to try it.
