Jenny and GninGnin prepare for Henry's first moon party. Great for ages k-2. Good book!
LibraryThing member acwheeler
Book about grandmother teaching granddaughter how to cook and grand daughter is becoming a big sister. Cute story and illustrations are awesome! Outside of book is backwards which is cute but frustrating!
LibraryThing member dangerlibearian
Not so fond of the illustrations, a first moon birthday is a month old, celebration to offer good health and happiness, welcoming the baby into the world. Book describes the celebration and all the preparation that goes into the celebration.
LibraryThing member kmunsey
A sweet and detailed story about a child's first moon birthday that is traditional in Asian cultures. Written well enough for a child to understand it does not demonstrate the best grammar.
