The Moon Children follows mice who believe the moon is made of cheese and will fly to it to confirm their theories. The illustrations were adorable, and I loved all of the cheese puns.

The story definitely seems to be a metaphor for religion and what different sects believe. It is a great way to discuss those differences with your children.

Thanks to NetGalley, E. G. Creel, and Victory Editing for the chance to review!

Young readers embark on a delightful adventure where the moon isn't just a celestial body, but a cheesy wonderland! Creel's imaginative tale of lunar exploration is as whimsical as it is entertaining, offering a fresh perspective on the age-old question of what the moon is made of. With its playful narrative and colorful illustrations, 'The Moon Children' invites readers of all ages to join in the fun and embrace the magic of storytelling. This charming book is sure to leave both kids and adults smiling from ear to ear as they journey through the cheesy cosmos with the lovable characters.

This was such an interesting read. The story was a great length for my kids, and touched on different belief systems and how they interact in a very easy to comprehend way. Definitely a great conversation starter with your little ones without digging into an intense theology lesson on each religion.

Students liked this book because it was funny that the mice thought the moon was made out of cheese. The mice were arguing but then they problem solved to find a solution. They thought it was clever that the mice were grouped into different cheese groups; the names of the groups were hilarious!

They felt like it was a tad short. It ended abruptly. They were also disappointed to find out that there was not cheese in the moon.

Thanks to NetGalley for a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review from my first graders.

This was a really cute story and I absolutely loved the pictures. It is something that I would consider buying my own children to read to them. I will definitely be coming an eye out for more works from this author in the future!

I loved this book! I’m obsessed with the illustrations and they are one of the best I’ve seen in a children’s book so far. The storyline is so cute and I loved all the cheese references. There is a bit of a religious aspect to it but it’s not heavily thrown in your face. I could definitely see kids loving this story.

I am absolutely shocked this story doesn’t have any other reviews. I fell in love with it and definitely will be purchasing a few copies.

Thank you to the author and NetGalley for this e-ARC.
