Happy book birthday to Paul Harbridge, whose beautiful picture book illustrated by Matt James, WHEN THE MOON COMES, publishes today with Tundra Books! In this atmospheric story, a group of kids play hockey on a frozen lake by moonlight. At once nostalgic and timely, this is a gorgeous book that will speak to readers young and old. It has already received glowing starred reviews from Kirkus: “The illustrations, with their burnished waning light, and the clipped-short narrative combine to create an atmosphere that for anyone who has experienced it will feel pitch-perfect” and SLJ: “An exquisite selection for older elementary readers, this is a first purchase for school and public libraries”. Congratulations Paul!
