Summary: Bedtime Splendor.....
Comment: "Rise the moon/and lunar moth,/drawn to its lovely shine,/flits across the blossoms/of the dreamy moonflower vine..." Join the moon on its magical journey across the sky and watch the nightime world come alive. Meet the moonlit artist who "takes his brush to paint a bowl of light", the night-shift baker, a rooftop dancer, and the sleepy sailor "on the swaying schooner." See the sea turtles "launch themselves across a breezy dune", the bat, and the moon-awakened mouse. And hear the silver wolf "howl its ancient moonstruck song. Astronomers are having a "star-party on the soaring mountain slopes", a camper reads by moonlight, and a young mother and her sleeping baby "swings by moon-glow beneath the leafy boughs..." Eileen Spinelli weaves an enchanting nightime spell with this captivating lullaby. Her soothing, lyrical verse is filled with imagery and magic and complemented by Raul Colon's stunning artwork. Each illustration captures the wonders of the night in soft, dreamy, moonlit tones, and young and old alike will want to linger before turning the page. Perfect for preschoolers, Rise The Moon is a marvelous addition to any bedtime ritual. "So rise the moon,/so round and bright,/let its tender magic fall./Within its spell of splendor/we are/moon-hearted creatures/all."
