An exquisitely illustrated picture book about sharing the wonders of the world.
Every evening, Mouse waits for night to arrive, for with it comes her only friend: the moon. Mouse loves talking to Moon about her day and her dreams, believing there’s no one else in the world but them.
But one night, when the moon comes crashing down from the sky into the deep sea, faces begin to emerge from the darkness. It seems Mouse might not be the only one that cares for Moon dearly . . .
A stunning tale of friendship, sharing and being mindful that we are all a part of a wider community, by Sandra Dieckmann, the creator of The Magic Fether, Leaf and Waiting for Wolf.
