On a very hot night, when no one could sleep, the moon itself melted. Fortunately Granny ran out with a bucket and caught the falling moon drops. She had a great idea, and made icy moon pops for everyone. Even though the power went out, everyone in the apartments slept well, the moon pops kept them cool. But when 2 rabbits arrive because they lost their home, Granny needs to figure out how to help them. 

I loved this modern folktale! The mixed media illustrations were wonderful. A great bedtime story on a hot night.
