I have another read for star gazers and space fans. Instead of sheer facts, though, this one takes a fun, heroic twist. At least, that's what I'm expecting. I'm hoping to pulls the balance between excitement and information in a way which will draw readers in.
Let's just see how it does!

MY TIDBITS
Space and science are anything but boring and drab in this fun adventure, which lets imagination take flight...while teaching a few facts along the way.
Supermoon is here to save the day! With the power to drive the tides, reflect light from the sun, and even act as a shield against meteors, which might hit the Earth and cause damage, this superhero promises more adventure than might first appear.
This book takes the moon, puts it in a cape, and brings it to life as a superhero. What might seem like a tiny bit over-the-top at first, turns out to be a steer into a fun row of escapades, where this hero helps the planet Earth and even saves the day. The illustrations let the amazingness of Supermoon come across with the same atmosphere one would expect from a superhero (cartoon) show. While this struck me as a bit odd, at first, it soon became clear that how clever it is. The reader is drawn into the light-tension action, while learning about the importance of our moon. The facts are pretty tightly woven into the adventure, but the basics still come across nicely...just not in usual, nonfiction style.
It's a bright, entertaining read and works well as a read-aloud or in more personal settings. It is thought for the younger audience and really doesn't dive deep into space information. And that's just fine. It sets the basis for knowledge in the future and leaves a positive view of the moon.
