Summary: A beautiful dreamworld
Comment: ...in Australia it is published under the name of The Garden. ...the book is such a magical journey into the heart of a child. I feel emotional reading these books, the images are so real I want to reach out and touch them and the words transport you to an early America that is full of magic and that takes a child on a journey of growth as she gives back what she found to the rightful owners. I thank the author and illustrator for their marvelous books and for the magic I share with my son when we read them. I only rated this book 4 stars because the whale song is my favourite but on it's own it really does deserve 5 stars.

Summary: A beautiful way to introduce a child to American history.
Comment: We found this story of discovery a beautiful and intelligent way to begin to introduce our child to the history of Native Americans and the world as it was. The illustrations are absolutely breathtaking and our son is taken with the descriptive yet understandable language used by the author. What a magnificent book!

Summary: Wonderful illustrations/story, great children's book!
Comment: Under the Moon is one of the most beautifully illustrated children's books I have seen, and I worked in a children's bookstore for two years! The illustrations, actually oil paintings, do an excellent job supporting a beautiful story. A young girl finds an arrowhead and asks her mother if she can spend the night under the stars and the moon. The illustrations show her day-dreams that may or may not cross into reality. She envisions the buffalo and deer that roamed the land so long ago at her house as well as the Indian who dropped the arrowhead. Pay attention to the details in the clouds. Wonderful book; but not preachy or boring. Makes a great present for a 5-8 year old girl. If you like Rafe Martin I recommend this highly.
