One night, a boy couldn’t sleep. The stars were bright. The moon was a gold balloon. And Moon Boy, traveling on a moonbeam, came to play.

But the boy didn’t want to let Moon Boy leave. So he captured him and put him in the toy box. What will happen? Will Moon Boy get home again?

This Level 2 Bank Street Ready-to-Read book is perfect for young children just beginning to read by themselves, but still need a little support. Colorful illustrations accompany this fantasy story that's perfect for young children. With its gentle lesson about doing what is right, it’s an ideal book for young readers.

Recommended.
