内容简介

One night Rosalinda is awakened by a noise in the familys garden. She is astonished to see a man creeping away with a sack of fruit from her beloved lemon tree. Rosalinda seeks out La Anciana for advice. The wise old woman offers an inventive way to help the tree and the man driven to steal her lemons. Set in the Mexican countryside, this charming story explores how it feels to get gifts and to give them. The cloth edition of Under the Lemon Moon is a Parents Choice Silver Honor Award winner, a Smithsonian Notable Book for Children, and a CBC/NCSS Notable Social Studies Trade Book for Young People. Rene King Morenos figures are soft and gently rounded like the spirit of the story. Chicago Tribune
