This book is about the harvest moon. This moon happens right before the short days in the winter. When people would rely on farming, they would harvest their summer crops on this evening. People throughout history would use the harvest moon for spiritual guidance. This would be the beginning of a harvest. The book tells different points of view during the harvest moon. For example, when a pilot goes out at night, he sees how bright the moon is. It looks like broad daylight. Baby turtles are strong enough to finally head to the ocean. ( )

talks about all the things that harvest moon does (helps the turtles get to the sea, helps the mice run around, it whispers to the geese)

Beautiful vocabulary and descriptive language describe the beauty of the full moon in autumn. Fletcher also brings in the seasonal events during the fall, including sea turtles hatching, geese flying south, as well as a few vocations that are night dependent, such as the nightwatchman. Kate Kielser's illustrations are sparkling, a true asset to the book. ( )
