By the light of the Moona

When our starter kit first arrived, I just continued sorting laundry. My son noticed something was delivered but I ignored it.  That's because like any small child, I knew he’d get too excited about the box and it was business-related.

Then I heard him shout, “Barefoot Books!”

But, how could he know?  Then, I saw him pointing to the logo and as it turns out, he recognized the footprints and knew exactly what it was.  My plan was to wait until he fell asleep to go through it because it would be hard for him to grasp that some items were for others to enjoy.

Toward the end there's an informative section and I must confess that as a grown adult, I knew there was a half moon, a full moon and a crescent moon, but only through this reading did I learn about a gibbous moon!  

Oh, and regarding the moon in general.  Every day, as the sun would set, we had a routine of looking for it in the night's sky.  It was one of my son's first words but he called it something a little bit different. Somehow, he had confused it with the Spanish translation, “luna” and thus the two had become one.  (A Spanish version is also available entitled Llevé a la Luna a pasear.)

Well, they say we must pick our battles and therefore, the moona it is.
