About This Book

Bear's friend Little Bird teaches him how to play "Hide and Seek" — complete with covering his eyes, counting to ten, and most importantly, taking turns. Bear loves the new game, and eager to play again (even when Little Bird is not around), he asks the moon to join him. When he closes his eyes and counts to ten, the moon obliges, "hiding" behind a cloud. Unfortunately, the moon is much harder to find than Little Bird was. A concerned Bear enlists the help of Little Bird and all the animals in the forest to help him search for the missing moon.

Filled with subtle lessons about cooperation, taking turns, asking for help, and more, Moongame teaches without being heavy-handed. This simple, toddler-pleasing story, part of Frank Asch's popular Moonbear series, is sure to delight fans and give a warm welcome to those who are just meeting Bear and his friends for the first time.
