The charming Caldecott Medal-winning fable of a sickly princess who knows she will be well if only she can have the moon in the sky. The story is a wonderful lesson in creativity, divergent thinking and problem-solving.
Grown-ups themselves find this book hilariously funny, but it is by no meeans too sophisticated for children. The lovely, squiggly illustrations in color exactly right. - The New Yorker
