Overview
Hello Sun Goodbye Moon is a book that teaches and corrects some misconceptions that children most often have about the sun and the moon.
Description
Hello Sun Goodbye Moon is a story that was inspired by the curiosity of a little boy at 3 years old. He and his mom were riding to school when he asked her why is the sun following us. Many children have this same misconception about the sun. This story teaches what is actually happening with the sun and the moon in a child like way. It flows like poetry as the sun answers a child's question, and the child later talks to the moon. It's not only a sweet story but a great teaching tool as well.
