Many Moons

James Thurber

Winner:Caldecott Medal -Picture Book (1944)
Princess Lenore is ill from eating too many raspberry tarts. She believes that possessing the moon is the only thing that will cure her.

Only when the clever Court Jester consults the Princess herself is the problem solved - with characteristic Thurber wit.
