MOONTELLERS is an enchanting journey across oceans & continents & time into the lives of people of different cultures. This collection of folktales displaces the familiar "man-in-the-moon": here the lunar face reveals, in turn, a rabbit & frog, a weaver & her cat & even a four-eyed jaguar. Each culture has its own distinct characteristics & each sees something different in the dark patches of the full moon - but remarkably, they are all linked by the fact that they all see SOMETHING there. Lynn Moroney presents the viewpoints of eleven cultures ranging from China to Polynesia to Africa in simple, magical verses; in the legends behind the moon pictures; & in facts that give insight into the peoples of different places - making the book appeal to a wide range of age groups. Greg Shed gives subtle shading to the moon in each mystical lunar illustration, helping children to find the moon pictures in their own night sky. MOONTELLERS is not just a book, it's a gift of wonder. "A book with lessons for child & adult alike...a memorable collection...Shed's interpretations of the moon accompanying each story are celestial joys...Good Reads."--ACCENT WEST.
