The Sun, the Moon, and the Stars

Front Cover
Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, 2003 - Juvenile Nonfiction - 40 pages
From an early age, we are awestruck by the shining beacons in our sky: we know the brilliant sun, we gaze at the dreamy silver moon, we watch the countless stars twinkling as if saying hello. So far away yet so present here in our daily lives, the sun, moon, and the stars mark the passage of time, bringing light and life, warmth, hope, and wonder. And they have inspired poets and artists through the ages to capture their meaning.
This heartfelt and lovely poetry collection includes poems by Frank Asch, Aileen L. Fisher, Russell Hoban, Patricia Hubbell, Christina Rossetti, and more.

About the author (2003)

The Sun, the Moon, and the Stars is a unique collection of poems gathered by cut-paper artist Nancy Elizabeth Wallace. Opening the pages of this beautiful book is like stepping through the gates of a well-loved garden. Using her tiny scissors, her love of nature, and her great sense for the world of children, she invites us to explore this playful and lovely constellation of poems with her.
