Have you heard that the Moon is made of green cheese? Or that the appearance of the full moon can turn you into a wolf? And how about that Man on the Moon? If you believe any of these old Moon myths, then you need to get your facts straight--straight from a Moonstruck cat and his firefly pal, that is. These two characters have the real facts, and they're just as intriguing: Why does the Moon seem to change shape? What is it made of? Who were the men on the Moon, and what did they find there? Let this fun-loving feline and his bright friend show you around huge lunar craters, Moon dust, rocks, and footprints, and give you the solar system's best view of planet Earth. Take the challenge--Jump Into Science today and let this astronomically knowledgeable duo fly you to the Moon tonight. National Geographic supports K-12 educators with ELA Common Core Resources.

This book is perfect for explaining the moon to your child. The illustrations and diagrams are clear and fun. My 6yr old loves this book AND the craft at the end of the book ~ making your own moon craters using flour, pebbles, etc. This science series is a must for any child's library. I'm eager to delve into the others for him!
