"Night after night, the moon comes out to play..." Courgeon relates the phases of the moon with certain objects in our world, comparing the waxing crescent to a monkey's banana, for example. Stark yellow and black illustrations make this perfect to be read aloud. The specific vocabulary for the moon's cycles is not used within the story but discussed in the end papers.
