Catching The Moon

Angry at the moon for allowing high tides to destroy her village's fishing shacks, an old fisherwoman decides to catch that rascal and give him a good talking-to. However, instead of the moon, the fisherwoman begins reeling in her favourite foods. And a teapot. And finally some magically glowing cans of paint. Might these gifts have anything to do with the silvery, shining, round-faced stranger whostarts to visit on moonless nights? Chris Sheban's illustrations illuminate Myla Goldberg's salty picture book debut.

In a book with foldout pages, Monica's father fulfills her request for the moon by taking it down after it is small enough to carry, but it continues to change in size.

This poetic picture book explores seven marvelous ways of catching the moon. Equipped with a butterfly net, a little girl tries hitching with a witch, riding on a dragon's back, and floating in a hot-air balloon, until finally the moon is discovered.

Prince Hal wanted the moon. Did his servants, Grim and Crumb, catch it for him?

A child imagines going into outer space, catching the moon, and taking it on an around-the-world adventure.

Mole thinks the moon is the most beautiful thing he's ever seen, so he sets about retrieving it, but bringing down the moon is not as easy as he thinks! Walker Books have collaborated with King Rollo Films to create this animated DVD packaged with the picture book.
