I like the book Checking On The Moon, because my opinion this book is great. Think this book is a great book for kids to read.My reflection on this book is it was kind of sad and kind of a good book.

Very well-written. Davis gives great detail.

Checking on the Moon was a very well-written book. I liked the fact that it showed how an boring town can turn into one you will never forget! I thought that Cab was, surprisingly, more enthusiastic that I thought she would be. I also feel as if her mother and father were kind of mean because they left her with her grandmother in a strange city all summer. I think that the customers and the class that she took were the things that kept her sane. I was secretely hoping that Cab would not go to Europe, but I guess that she had to. Jenny Davis is an aspiring writer, and this is a very fine work of literature.
