Summary:
Tomi Ungerer, illustrator of Jeff Brown's original Flat Stanley and winner of the prestigious 1998 Hans Christian Andersen Illustrator Award, paints the man in the moon as a benevolent, soft-bodied man who curls up in "his shimmering seat in space." Most evenings, he looks over longingly at the happy, dancing earth people, until one night when he can't resist catching the(...)

Summary:
Tomi Ungerer, illustrator of Jeff Brown's original Flat Stanley and winner of the prestigious 1998 Hans Christian Andersen Illustrator Award, paints the man in the moon as a benevolent, soft-bodied man who curls up in "his shimmering seat in space." Most evenings, he looks over longingly at the happy, dancing earth people, until one night when he can't resist catching the fiery tail of a comet and hitching a ride to Earth. Ungerer, ever satirical, reports the resulting frenzy of authorities upon hearing the crash landing: "The noise brought hundreds of people from a nearby town. Soldiers sped to defend the earth. Firemen hastened to quench the flaming light. The ice cream man hurried to set up his stand for the spectators." Of course, when the crowd discovers the unidentified fallen object, "statesmen, scientists, and generals panicked." Moon Man is thrown in jail, facing criminal investigation! How will he ever return to his lunar dwelling? Kids will love this quirky "there's no place like home" tale, and Ungerer's gentle, funny mocking of "important people" won't be lost on anyone. (Ages 4 to 8)

Beatriz Banha: Midday moon
Actions:
Price:
$50.00
(available in store)
Summary:
Much like the moon, which does not cast its own light but reflects the sun’s, the photographs in ''Midday Moon'' appear to represent the world, but are, in fact, an echo of Beatriz Banha’s particular universe. This is a world seen askew: hands mid-gesture, textures half-revealed, objects both tactile and out of place. Banha’s presence is constant but never central.(...)

Summary:
Much like the moon, which does not cast its own light but reflects the sun’s, the photographs in ''Midday Moon'' appear to represent the world, but are, in fact, an echo of Beatriz Banha’s particular universe. This is a world seen askew: hands mid-gesture, textures half-revealed, objects both tactile and out of place. Banha’s presence is constant but never central. She operates just outside the frame, like a satellite held in orbit. The places that formed her, the house she grew up in, territories in and around Évora, everyday scenes and familiar spaces — are all touched by something unfamiliar: the agency of photography. Flash brings surfaces into sharp relief while casting doubt on their meaning. Obstacles impair our recognition of figures in portraits. Lush still-lives appear gift-wrapped in plastic bags. The scenes appear real enough, yet they feel slightly detached, as if lit by an otherworldly source. ''Midday Moon'' might be a study in perception. A kind of lunary where the moon is rarely seen, but rather what it lights up: a world estranged from itself. An elusive account, equally distanced and affectionate, of the relationship between the real world and Banha’s own, in which photography acts as our interpreter.

Summary:
Start with the fact that the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam has in its collection a moon rock, brought to Earth in 1969 on Apollo 11. This book takes that artifact to the next step, asking a group of artists and writers whether perhaps the museum should be planning a branch on the moon itself in the future.

This book takes that artifact to the next step, asking a group of artists and writers whether perhaps the museum should be planning a branch on the moon itself in the future. This thought-provoking little book riffs on the themes of space travel and colonization, with texts on site-specificity, history, space law and its global implications. Also included is a list of almost 800 songs which have the word "moon" in their title. In a world where eager buyers trade "moon lots" on the internet, is the whole idea of a moon museum so far fetched?
