Some pages contain only a sentence or two, and Maguire has included his own “illuminations” or sketches, to illustrate the story. There’s a lovely energy to Maguire’s drawings which complements the action of the story, and he plays with light and shadow in the same way visually as he does textually. These two formatting choices make the book ideal for children, something which is not true for his other re-imaginings.]]> http://calitreview.com/5765/feed 0 http://calitreview.com/239 http://calitreview.com/239#comments Tue, 17 Jul 2007 16:34:13 +0000 Sarah Werthan Buttenwieser http://calitreview.com/2007/07/17/friendship-is-the-first-step-to-peace-a-review-of-picture-books-that-highlight-our-getting-along/ Regards To The Man In The Moon chronicles Louie’s having to tell his new stepfather, Barney, that he’s being teased because Barney is a junk man.
