Review: I Would Dangle the Moon

The bond between mother and child is a powerful and beautiful one. In I would Dangle the Moon, a mother and daughter ponder the moon and all the things it could be.

If I was a farmer, I would plant the moon in the middle of my field so you could watch it crack the earth as it grew.

Set in a sparkling ring, placed in a nest to keep eggs warm, cooked into moon cake, the possibilities are only limited by your imagination.

This is a loving and lyrical picture book about love and possibilities. 

The words really do warm your heart as you read, and I love that it encourages kids to use their imagination — to really push it to its limits and not let anything stand in the way.

I Would Dangle the Moon is a story to inspire brilliant and creative thinkers.
