Moon Babies

Illustrated by Amy Hevron
Just right for fans of Dream Animals, this gorgeously illustrated story-in-verse about baby moons growing up in a celestial nursery is ideal bedtime reading and a perfect new baby gift.

In the starry dark of night, / a secret moon world comes to light. / Make a wish and you just might / visit baby moons tonight. Follow the moon babies on their busy day from waking up in their crescent cradles, to breakfast on the Milky Way, to bundling up for moonwalks, to orbiting the earth in a lunar carousel, and more! And at day's end, watch as the babies finish bathtime with stardust powder, snuggle up with nursery rhymes and lullabies, and finally drift off to sleep. Karen Jameson's charming verse is a joy to read aloud, and Amy Hevron's enchanting illustrations are simply irresistible, making this the perfect read-aloud to send little ones off to dreamland.
Amy Hevron is the illustrator of the upcoming picture book Trevor by Jim Averbeck. Dust Bunny Wants a Friend is her author-illustrator debut. In both 2015 and 2016, Amy received the Portfolio Honor Award from the Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators. Also a freelance illustrator and designer, Amy draws inspiration from wildlife, nature, and travel. Visit her at amyhevron.com or on Twitter at @amyhevron. View titles by Amy Hevron
