About this audiobook
What would it be like if the moon was your friend?
Find out as you walk alongside a little boy who journeys through life to achieve his dream of becoming an astronaut. Then blast off with your little one as you zoom to the moon together!
The story begins when a little boy, who is flying his kite, notices a sad Moon. He sends up kites to her, writing notes promising he will come to see her someday. This promise propels him through years of studying, learning, and training to become an astronaut. Until...he finally goes up, up, up in a big rocket ship with a fiery tail!

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5My favourite part was wen he send it kites to the moon and we he went it to the moon in a rocket
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5It’s been 50 years since man first went to the moon, and in celebration of that Jane Yolen and her daughter Heidi E. Y. Stemple have written a delightful children’s book. Simple illustrations accompany the narrative featuring a young boy who dreams of one day reaching the moon. I liked how the authors incorporate the child’s fascination with the moon and the things it took to get him there! Easy to understand for the youngest child, it will open up a conversation about the first moonwalk (and hopefully more reading opportunities), and the importance and possibilities in a child’s dream. This book is for anyone who wants to instill the awe of the world around us with the desire to fulfill dreams in their child’s heart.Recommended.Audience: kids ages 4-8(Thanks to Zonderkidz for a complimentary copy. All opinions expressed are mine alone.)
