Catching the Moon

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Chris Sheban. A fisherwoman tries to catch the moon and bully it into keeping the high tide from washing her shack away. The logic behind this wordy, quirky, surrealistic tale is vague and will likely leave readers with questions. The colored-pencil and watercolor illustrations glow with the phosphorescence of moonlight against the dark blue of the night sky.
