Shine Moon Shine
"Conway has created a charming small story, where the paraphernalia of modern life (multi-storey buildings and torches) are essential items in what is essentially a twenty-first century version of a generic folktale. Kolanovic’s pastel illustrations add immeasurably to the whole, with wide snowy street scenes populated by quirky dogs, cats and children and an enormous, imprecise and endless sky. A classic in the making?"-Booktrust

"The book is intended for the three to five year old age group, but I'd think that anyone with a soul would love it, whatever their age....It's just a wonderful, wonderful book."- Bookbag

" A superb picture book..."-  School Librarian

"A heartwarming story, beautifully illustrated for children in early and middle years."- Riverbend Books
When the moon falls from the cold, dark night sky, a young boy tries various ways to light up the sky so the moon won't be lonely any more. Eventually, he persuades it back into the sky where, with the help of the new stars, it shines brighter than ever before.
