The Moon Seems to Change

• Title: The Moon Seems to Change
• Author: Franklyn M. Branley
• Illustrator: Barbara and Ed Emberley
• Publisher: Harper, an imprint of HarperCollinsPublishers
• Publication year: 1987
• Brief Summary: From HarperCollins-“This clear and appealing science book for early elementary age kids, both at home and in the classroom, introduces basic information about the moon.”
• Ideas for using this book in classroom or library – I am not sure what the current market is for science picture books, but I am not sure if this book, while obviously used in the public library setting, would still be in circulation in a school library. However, I do think that this book would be excellent as a visual representation of the phases of the moon that could also be used for older children. The activity in the book would also be something that could be done as a class.
• Whatever additional notes you’d like to add about this book and why you liked or didn’t like it – Because I am not sure that this would even be in circulation in a school library, I don’t know that I recommend this one.
