Have you ever wondered why The moon shines in the night-time sky? How every creature, plant and tree Is subject to its mystery . . .   A gorgeous picture book by award-winning author and illustrator Britta Teckentrup!   As the moon waxes and wanes above, the world below is full of busy night-time creatures; from turtles laying their eggs on white sandy beaches, to migrating birds using the moon to navigate their way to sunnier climes. Turn the peek-through pages to see the moon change shape as it goes through the lunar cycle! Lyrical text by Patricia Hegarty is paired with stunning artwork by the award-winning illustrator Britta Teckentrup to capture the beauty of moonlit nights from the desert to the depths of the ocean.   Also available in the Peek-through Nature series: Don't miss the full range of stunning picture books that focus on the natural world, including Tree, Bee, Sea and Home!   For more Britta Teckentrup books that explore social themes, don’t miss We Are Together, Under the Same Sky, Kindness Grows and A Happy Place.
