The Littlest Creature and the Legend of the Moonchild

Book excerpt: This is a story about growing up. Sent in search of the legendary Moonchild, the last thing the littlest creature expects to find, is himself… Long ago, there was a being called the Moonchild. He was meant to be the world’s greatest protector, presiding over death to sustain the balance of life. But, afraid, he ran from his responsibility before he could accept it; disappearing from the face of the world. Years later, a small mouse-like creature emerges from his nest in search of identity. He is sent to find the legendary Moonchild, for it is only he who can tell the littlest creature what he is. On his journey he ventures through strange and fantastical realms—learning the balance between light and darkness, and the importance of following one’s heart, along the way. Lushly illustrated throughout, this is a dark fairy tale for children ages seven years and up, and is ideal for reading to your kids before bed.
