We discovered this beautiful story a while back when my son was obsessed with the moon. Every night, he would look out the windows and search for the moon, and just sit there for a few minutes, observing it.
The shiny cover got his attention right away. 😉
This story is about a little boy named Chris.
“Chris loves rockets and planets and pretending he’s a brave astronaut, exploring the universe. Only one problem–at night, Chris doesn’t feel so brave. He’s afraid of the dark.But when he watches the groundbreaking moon landing on TV, he realizes that space is the darkest dark there is–and the dark is beautiful and exciting, especially when you have big dreams to keep you company.”
A wonderful story about dreaming the impossible.
(And the illustrations are just astonishing, just as always with the Fan brothers.).
