Publisher's Synopsis
An entrancing picture book about the moon, an astronaut and the earth, written by two highly regarded Japanese authors. The artistic and delicate illustrations by Sate Tone, the winner of the International Award for Illustration at the Bologna Children's Book Fair, and the bewitching story written by the recipient of Japan's Akutagawa Prize, the most prestigious Literary Award given to young authors, Nanae Aoyama, is one to captivate adults and children alike. Satoe Tone's artwork has been praised world-wide, and her picture books are available in not only Japanese, but have been translated into French, Italian, Chinese, Spanish, and Russian. This is the long-awaited English edition of I am the Moon.
