Sun and Moon: A Giant Love Story

32 pp. February, 1999 | Trade ISBN 0-590-18720-1 $$16.95
(4) K-3 A sun-loving boy giant and moony girl giant live their solitary lives on opposite ends of the planet, not realizing there is anyone else in the world as mammoth as themselves, until an eclipse brings them together. The story won't have a lot of child-appeal; however, the surreal mixed-media illustrations incorporate photographs to create arresting images, such as the boy sleeping on a tree-dotted plain, covered with a blanket of birds.
Reviewer: Christine M. Heppermann
