5 Minutes for Books: I Met a Moose in Maine One Day
It’s no secret…Moose are my absolute favorite animals. There is just something about their big bodies and heads balancing on those long skinny legs. How can you not just love them!
Needless to say, I was very happy when given the chance to review Shankman and O’Neill’s I Met a Moose in Maine One Day!!!
I Met a Moose in Maine One Day tells the tale of a boy as he travels through Maine with his newly acquired house guest, a Moose! From shopping and dancing to planes and log-rolling, they take in all the sites of Maine. Of course having fun at every stop!
My daughter loves the artwork and how the moose tries to hide behind a lamp while playing hide-and-seek. She cracks up at that part every time! I love the story itself and how fun it is to read, a lot like Dr. Seuss. We’ve actually read the story so many times now that my daughter knows what is coming up before I even turn the page!!!
All of Shankman and O’Neill’s books are amazing. Clever stories that my girls want to hear over and over again and illustrations that draw you in to each page of the book. You can read our reviews of Boston Balloonies and The Cods of Cape Cod here and here.
All of these books would make great gifts this holiday season. You can purchase any of these books online. And, once your child has fallen in love with these books (which won’t take long), have them get creative and submit their book fan art to Shankman and O’Neill (details on their website)!!!
