## Description

A Caldecott Honor Book! A gorgeous picture book that tells a whimsical origin story of the phases of the moon, from award-winning, bestselling author-illustrator Grace Lin Pat, pat, pat... Little Star's soft feet tiptoed to the Big Mooncake. Little Star loves the delicious Mooncake that she bakes with her mama. But she's not supposed to eat any yet! What happens when she can't resist a nibble? In this stunning picture book that shines as bright as the stars in the sky, Newbery Honor author Grace Lin creates a heartwarming original story that explains phases of the moon.

Review: One of the best read alouds - This has been a classroom favorite of my pre-k students and for good reason. It’s absolutely beautiful and such a fun story to share as kids are learning the moon phases.
Review: Loved by daughter - My daughter loves this book, and she has from the beginning. I first got the book from the library after looking for books on various cultures. She loved it so much (then around age 2) I bought it. We read it again after a few months of not (now 3), and she loved it even more. It's just a very peaceful, sweet book that most can relate to... Not being able to resist another nibble... I also love that it shows a sweet mother daughter bond, which is somewhat difficult to find in children's stories.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ gorgeous illustrations
*by F***E on May 15, 2019*

I love Grace Lin. She is consistently a favorite children’s author in our house, and this book won’t disappoint! First, the illustrations are stunning. The background of every page is shiny black with the mooncake and Little Star’s pajamas jumping off the page. Second, the story is so relatable to little kids. Little Star can’t help herself. She takes bites of the mooncake every night and trails crumbs everywhere. Finally, what a beautiful fable about the cycle of the moon! I try to be intentional about sharing fables and stories from multiple cultures with my kids, and this story/fable is awesome. My 4-year-old son said, “So, I think this story must be true. The moon does change just like that!” What a perfect springboard for discussing the role of stories in understanding our world! (Not that he got what I was talking about. He pretty much believes the story is true still. But a better conversation with my 7-year-old!)
