The Luna Sisters Battle for the Moon Blossom - (I Like to Read Comics) by Dan Yaccarino

About the Book

"Two sisters, Lucy and Nera--who live on the moon--both want the Moon Blossom, [so] when a Galactic Green Goat is about to eat their flower, the sisters must stop fighting and work together"--

Book Synopsis

Lucy and Nera are opposites BUT . . . they both want the Moon Blossom! Created by an award-winning author-illustrator, this funny comic is perfect for first- and second-grade readers.

Lucy releases her flippity flappy butterflies, a thunderstorm, and her polka dotted elephant. And Nera counters with a grabby claw and a robotic tarantula. But while they're squabbling, a Galactic Green Goat is about to gobble up their Moon Flower. The sisters must come together to outwit the goat and rescue their blossom.

Review Quotes

Yaccarino's distinct style brings sharp angles and bright colors to the lunar landscape. . . A light science fiction/fantasy story about getting along through cooperation. A good choice where stories about siblings are needed.
--School Library Journal

Vibrant, chromatic illustrations match the kooky text, giving readers who need to work through some of the more demanding and less predictable words incentive to keep going. . . . This fantastical reader is a good choice for budding speculative fiction fans.
--The Horn Book
