Mama, was ist der Mond?: Volume 1 (Bedtime Question Books) - Tapa blanda

Mother, What is the Moon? is a poetic bedtime story that follows a mother and son on their journey to understand why the moon changes in the sky. On the surface, the story's metaphors are written to inspire beautiful artwork, while underneath, they carry a host of deeper meanings, hinting at the changing relationship of mother and child over time, and at our connections to the rhythms and cycles of nature.
