Simple and effective illustrations! A heartwarming and innocent tale that draws its inspiration not from mythology, but from the Mid-Autumn Moon Festival in the Chinese Culture. ( )

I think this book would be used more for primary level students. This book is about a mother and daughter making a mooncake together but then the little girl sneaks out every night to eat a little bit of it and when it's gone her mother notices. She says they now need to make another one together.

From Publisher's Weekly: "Lin successfully combines three distinctive and memorable elements: a fable that avoids seeming contrived, a vision of a mother and child living in cozy harmony, and a night kitchen of Sendakian proportions."

This book starts with Little Star and her mom making a giant mooncake and putting it in the sky. Each night, a little star sees the mooncake and eats a little piece of it. Over time, the mooncake disappears. The mom comes up and says that little star ate the mooncake again. They make another one. This is a cute story for Kindergarten or first grade. It could work well in introducing the difference between the different moon phases and observations between what is said and the pictures. I don't necessarily love this book, but it could also be a good book to have in a classroom library fiction section for beginning readers.

This would be a good book for primary ages because of the short pages and easy storyline.
This book is about a young girl who baked a mooncake with her mother and left it in the night sky to rest. However, she soon gets hungry and begins to nibble away at the cake.
This book would be a great book to use when learning about outer space and the phases of the moon.
