"Packed full of morals and lessons that we all want our children to learn"

Red City Review

I still have trouble reading the reviews of my work. I am the first to admit that I am certainly no Neil Gaiman, and I will not likely ever write a children’s book half as good as his The Ocean at the End of the Lane which, in my humble opinion, is a true masterpiece (just finished it - am still in awe). I’m just trying to tell what I hope is an entertaining story that I think has an important message. That’s why I get so touched when I read a review like this 5-star one from Red City Review.

Excerpt:

The Sorrow of a Crescent Moon is a book that, even though it is billed as a children’s book, works for all ages. It covers some heavy topics (like depression, homelessness, death, etc.) but it does it in a way that is gentle enough for children. It also helps adults remember to be understanding, compassionate, and hopeful.
