The Harvest moon is special to Eleanor and her grandfather. They will always share the moon, wherever they are. Growing up, Eleanor and her grandfather spent a lot of time together. They had many adventures out in nature and they always noticed the phase of the moon. Unfortunately, Eleanor's mom got a job in a different city and they had to move far away from Grandfather. Although they miss each other dearly, Eleanor and her grandfather can look up at the same moon and be close to each other. 

This book had a very sweet message. It acknowledges the strong bond between granddaughter and grandfather. This book can help young children face their fears if have have to move away from someone they love.
