Absolutely Beautiful! 26 October, 2003 Our children (ages 3 and 5) LOVE this book. And so do I. The illustrations are gorgeous. The story is fantastic. And what makes it even more nice is that it's true. This is one of our favorite children's books. Our kids ask for this time and time again.

Great For Boys 13 June, 2001 This book is a wholesome family and nature oriented book for boys 3-8 years old. My son has spent countless hours playing out the theme of this book - never tiring of the many options it offers. If you have a budding oceanographer or tide-pooling enthusiast this is the book for you. Any landlocked readers can enjoy the book just as well. The book's pictures fill the pages as well as the mind with dreamy images that bring the whole story to life. The words and images are really a hand and glove that make a perfect fit. The book also models working together as a family and that children can have an important place in helping. Grandma's get a boost here too as quick and creative planners. Nigth of the Moonjellies is also a gentle reminder to save some of the present for the future, without heavy sentimentality. A great book to read if you include any aquariums in your vacations. Don't forget about Aliki's great "My Visit to the Aquarium" book.

Night Of The Moonjellies 10 January, 2008 I thought it might be a bit advanced for my 5-year-old granddaughter, but she enjoyed it. Is part of her homeschool curriculum. As a young Southern California girl, she learned many new vocabulary words and found it very interesting.

Moonjellies And More 03 November, 2008 My seven-year-old son and I enjoyed this story of a boy, also age seven, who helped at his family's food stand. The grandmother in the story made a special point of dealing with her grandson's curiosity, and her grandson showed patience in waiting for an answer. We had previously seen moonjellies at the aquarium, and this story brought back those memories. We also thought the pictures added much detail to the telling of the story and we tried our own pictures with pastels (a little messy but fun.) We have yet to try lobster or clam chowder, as mentioned in the story, but perhaps we will soon, as my son is also curious.
