Customer Reviews

Best Loved book by Elementary School Students

I am a reading teacher at an elementary school. I have read this book to three classes that I have taught over a period of two and one half years. The ages of the kids range from 6 to 10 years old. All three groups have absolutely loved this book and asked me read it to them again and again. They love the shiny moon and the shiny moon rocks. In accordance with the curriculum of the program I work for, I read a new book every four days, but so far El Lago De La Luna has been the one that the children can't get enough of. Dazzle the Dinosaur comes in second place. I strongly recommend this book.

Magical and Meaningful

This is an exceptional children's book. The story of Peter is beautifully woven through illustrations that are nothing short of magical. There's are messages about kindness, greed, and living simply, but they never jeopardize the enchantment.
