Review: Toddler loves it so much, she sleeps with it! - My little 2 year old loves this book so much, she'll take it to bed with her! The book is small, a little narrower than a board book, and the pages are regular paper (she's ripped one page, bu that's fixed with tape) but the illustrations are so charming...classic Eric Carle. The ending doesn't really say much, except that the moon grew back (it IS about the cycle of the moon, after all), but I think she likes the thought of Papa going to get the moon for the daughter to play with. I do have to substitute "Daddy" for "Papa" since she calls her grandfather that, and to avoid confusion, but my husband reads it verbatim, and she understands that "Papa" for the story = "Daddy". Charming, charming story, I would recommend it for anyone with a toddler who likes the moon and stars right now. There are pages to open for the full illustration, and a fold-out full moon page in the middle of the story that she likes, but needs help to fold back the right way. Highly recommend!
Review: Children will love the joyful way in which this problem is solved. - After reading comments of (board book) version having no resolution- ? I do not agree. Papa, please get the moon for me, by Eric Carle, reinvents the story in its final pages. 'Each night the moon grew... and grew and grew...' Ending with a two page picture of the full moon, no written words. The back cover of this book explains intent and resolution. It is in the wonder of imagination; a beautiful illustration of how resolution can be found with your own words. When my granddaughter and I turn to that final page, the book raised higher than she can reach, she reaches for that moon, creating a dream of her own. Sometimes we reflect upon our favorite part of the story. Sometimes the moon whispers, Goodnight.. It's not always what one reads. It's how you read it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Father’s Day present!
*by C***E on September 16, 2020*

Absolutely adorable little “pop-up” board book. We gave it to my father/my daughter’s papa as a Father’s Day gift. Even though the Papa in the story is her father, the sentiment is still there for a grandparent. The story is sweet, the usual great illustrations, and I love the fold-out board book format. The ending is absolutely fine and I’m not concerned about my 6-month old ripping the fold out pages- she literally gnaws on everything anyways.
