About This Book

The puzzling moon! How it followed Sumu around like a dog, playing tricks on him. Sometimes it seemed right over his shoulder, but it was always just out of reach. Sumu had to know what that little moon was up to. By intermingling folklore with the story of an insatiably curious little boy named Sumu, Clayton Bess has created a picture of African culture today. Rosekrans Hoffman's expressive illustrations will captivate readers as they follow Sumu's quest for the truth about the moon.
