As a child admires the moon, their mother imparts Mexican Indigenous wisdom of the moon's phases as they relate to our bodies and lives. Using Mexican concepts, this poignantly lyrical series invites young children to pay witness to nature, to value it, and to become a steward of the planet. The moon's phases-new, waxing, full, and waning-are seamlessly intertwined with our own natural cadences, showcasing the power and beauty of universal interconnectedness. Acclaimed middle-grade author Aida Salazar lovingly turns her attention to the youngest readers, bringing her signature lyrical text. With vibrant, mystical art, this book is a truly meaningful and formative experience for all young readers.
