E’s Pick of the Week for this week is another Kevin Henkes book - “Kitten’s First Full Moon” or as E calls it “KEE KEE MOOOOOOOON”. “Kitten’s First Full Moon” is about a little kitty who mistakes the full moon for a bowl of milk so she goes on an adventure to seek it out. On the way, she comes across many obstacles along with some bumps and bruises. Don’t worry though, she does get to a happy ending eventually. This book is so incredibly charming and Mr. Henkes’ illustrations are gorgeous. I wish I could decorate E’s room purely with Mr. Henkes’ artwork! I can’t say enough about how charming his style is.
“Kitten’s First Full Moon” is published by Greenwillow, an imprint of HarperCollins. It is available at bookstores everywhere in hardcover or you can find it at your local library.
This is a great book. When I first read about it in the NY Times Book Review, I decided, based on the art work, that I wanted it for a gift for a niece. It was so new, I literally had to track it down. When I finally got it, it was totally worth the trouble. A great book for kids!
