Description

The Moon befriends a poor artist and returns night after night to tell what it saw: street, sea, a child’s window, and scenes that want painting. Thirty-two evenings of moonlight as narrator open into further Andersen fairy tales in the same volume. Picture-book nights spoken as travel, with the Moon’s report and the stories that keep it company.
