Description

A rocking narrative ballad with an upswing tropical beat and an upbeat message about friendship and a child's deep bond with nature, this book and CD edition of Follow the Moon is sure to delight another generation of children.

A newly hatched sea turtle, whose instinct is to "follow the moon" to find the ocean, is drawn instead by a glittering mirrored ball in a crowded dance club. He is rescued by a young boy who helps him learn to listen to the voice inside his head.
