When the Moon Is Full

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Mary Azarian. A handsome collection of brief, imagistic poems circles through a calendar's worth of full moons. Native American names for the moons serve as each poem's title; a short note following each verse explains the inspiration for the lunar names--e.g., July is called the Buck Moon because bucks begin to sprout antlers during that month. Painted woodcut prints provide beautiful, naturalistic backdrops for the poetry. Questions and answers about the moon are included.
