Description

Moon is sad. She feels dull next to her bright happy sister, Sun. She hides away at night until Sun tells Moon how special she is and how she would love to share the sky with her.


This beautifully illustrated children’s book explains how our differences are our strengths and how together we can make the world a better place!
