The Night the Moon Fell

More about the book

A mischievous comet has toppled the dozing moon from the sky. He lands in the ocean and begins an exciting adventure, making new friends with the creatures of the sea. Much as he wants to stay and play, the sky, stars and planets need him back where he belongs. His new friends Wilma and Wanda try hard to help, but in the end their mother uses her enormous whale tail to fling him back into the sky, leaving a trail of moon dust in his wake. Sure to tickle the imagination of readers young and old, this is a delightful first children's book by award winning author Margaret Guppy, beautifully illustrated by Jill Riordan.
