Karen Hill, author of Cat Tails, delivers another whimsical story to little ones learning to read. Her ability to draw children into her stories is demonstrated once again in her latest book, My Peekaboo Moon. Karen brings her own childhood experience to life of riding in the family car and watching the moon seemingly follow them wherever they went. The story comes alive with the illustrations of Virginia Beach artist Deborah Wong, who incorporates hidden elements in each picture for little readers to find.
