Long Night Moon

40 pp. | Simon | December, 2004 | Trade ISBN 0-689-85426-9 $16.95
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Mark Siegel. "Long ago Native Americans / gave names to the full moons." This lyrical poem gives every moon its own personality: for example, the Thunder Moon of July "trembles, / shudders, / and disappears / in a thick black sky." The spare words shine as brightly as the moon on the charcoal and pastel panoramic rural scenes.
