Through the centuries people have measured time by the phases of the moon. From January s Wolf Moon to June s Honey Moon, and from September s Harvest Moon to December s Long-Night Moon, Joanne Taylor introduces the names of each full moon in a gentle narrative that follows the rhythms of a farm family s life. Folklore and real life blend in a beautiful new book about the seasons. The lyrical text is perfectly complemented by Susan Tooke s gorgeous paintings."
