Summary: another beautiful active book from Eric Carle
Review: Author Eric Carle (The Very Lonely Firefly, The Very Hungry Caterpillar, The Very Busy Spider) excels in creating books that offer children more than words on a page -- he consistently incorporates additional elements (lights, holes(!), textures) that make the books even more interesting to thirsty little minds.

In this book, a smaller portable version of the original, a girl asks her father for the moon. Fold-out pages complement Carle's unique illustrative style as we discover a looooooong ladder that reaches to the moon and back, and a magnificent four-page center spread revealing the full moon in all its glory.

This fantastic tale for young children is sure to delight parents and kids.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: If You Like Seeing The Moon, Read This Book
Review: Do you see a full moon every night? Papa Please Get the Moon for Me by Eric Carle.
I like this book because it has a huge moon. It has beautiful pictures. The moon has disappeared. Papa did not get the moon. I think this is an interesting book because it is a good book, it has nice pictures, and it has a huge moon. Read this book and see if Monica gets the moon or not.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: My 19 MO daughters favorite book
Review: Every night my daughter wants us to go outside and look for the moon. When I saw this book I knew I had to get it and she LOVES it. We change the name from "monica" to our daughters name, and when you get to the moon pop-out page she always laughs and screams and jumps. I also recommend "The night moon fell down" - another wonderful favorite.

Rating: 5 stars

Love love love it!!!! Jessie D

Summary: Wonderful concept poorly implemented
Review: I bought this book for my 11-month son who is very hard on regular books. Unfortunately, he will not get to read it until he is much older because the fold-out pages are much too flimsy for a board book.

I was very disappointed to bring it home from the store and have the page with the moon that unfolds tear just from me opening those two pages.

The book is very very pretty, I just wish it were more durable. I don't see how a child could avoid damaging it.

Summary: My favorite Eric Carle Book!
Review: I don't know why this one isn't more well-known. It's beautifully written, beautifully illustrated, fun to read, and very interactive for your children. A wonderful bed-time story. A guaranteed winner.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Sweet Book. Another Carle Classic!
Review: I have 20-month old twins who absolutely adore this book. We got it out from the library and they've wanted me to read it to them every day...many times a day. They love the pictures and how the pages flip up or down. They are facinated with the moon and the stars. They may not exactly understand yet what this book is about, however, it gets them interested in reading. We own many of Eric Carle books and this is one of my (and their)personal favorites. It really is timeless. A great story!

I would be careful letting your really young children play with this one alone since the pages are thin and easily ripped. It is one to read to them and put away after you're done.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Kindergarten memories...
Review: I remember when this book was first published, and my kindergarten teacher brought it into class to read to us during story time. I remember being enchanted by the fold outs and the idea of actually being able to 'play with the moon' like Monica did. It is a sweet story of the love a doting father has for his little girl. I highly recommed this book for any young child, in fact I was recently given this book for my 20th birthday to add to my collection of favorite children's books.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: WHAT A SWEET BOOK!!
Review: I think this is definitely one of my favourite books. I love books myself and I love my son now 18 months to read quality books. Every night since I've read this book to him, he points at the window at night time saying "Ba Ba" that's Chinese for father. It's simply so sweet. I've always loved Eric Carle's books but this one is my favourite. I will be running a playgroup soon and this is definitely my choice of book for father's day. Highly recommended. 5 start plus.
