Welcome to Litsy!

This book was published in 2019 and is a nonfiction book about the moon. This book has great pictures, is very informative, and is engaging for students. Nonfiction is often hard for me to find books that I enjoy teaching, and this is one of them. I will definitely use this in my classroom!

I love this book! I think it‘s an incredible book for the classroom from kindergarten all the way into middle school! It‘s filled with facts and it‘s an easy read! The illustrations are beautiful and any classroom would love it!

This book shares various facts about the moon with compelling illustrations and creative writing. I read this to 3rd graders and they absolutely loved it! It is a fun way to start discussions about science and the students loved the illustrations. This is certainly going to be in my classroom!

Stevie Lewis, who illustrated this book, came by the collection to discuss her artistic process and to share an activity to create our own moon (this is hers, not mine). Her alternative to a sponge for paint texture is A++ for working with children (uh, of all ages) who squish the sponge a little too much. #picturebooks
