"We are happy to award deserving books like My Moon Wish," said Dawn Matheson, CEO, Mom's Choice Awards. "Our panel of judges really felt this children's book merited a place on our list of the best in family-friendly products that parents and educators can feel confident using."

"When the moon is bright and the night is still, the Moon Rabbit appears, high on a hill."

With rhythmic prose that begs to be read aloud, author and illustrator Jane Brown beautifully captures the magic of childhood wishes. A dancing rabbit, wishes hung in trees, and a mysterious Wish Train that whisks children through the night sky are all delightfully depicted in Brown's enchanting dreamscape. My Moon Wish is sure to charm both children and adults.

About the Author

Jane Brown was born and raised in Herefordshire, England, and the beautiful countryside influenced her career as an artist. She has always loved quality children's books and was inspired to write My Moon Wish while staying in the small English village of Inkpen.

"I have always been inspired by the work of Make-A-Wish. The concept of wishing at the heart of my book perfectly dovetails with the organization's mission of granting life-changing children's wishes. Nothing is more powerful than a child's wish. I hope my book creates a space for children to dream and hope and let their minds journey to a place where the power of imagination and wishes can inspire them."

Jane Brown has lived in Kentucky for more than 25 years. She has two grown sons and two grandsons – Ollie, to whom the book is dedicated, and George, just recently born.
