Author Patricia Maclachlan wrote Your Moon, My Moon for her granddaughter, who lives in Africa. For grandparents who miss their grandchildren, Maclachlan distills the longings, the dreams and the heartache into simple sentiments children can understand.
The grandmother wonders if her grandchild remembers her, remembers what they did together, if the grandchild thinks of her as much as she thinks of him.
In the end, she reminds her grandchild they both enjoy the same moon at night, even if it’s at different times.
Highly recommended for ages 3 to 8; and their grandparents.
