Leo's Moon is a children's environment book by Cinthia Del Grosso. It talks about the environmental pollution issue. One day at night, through his bedroom window, Leo notices that the moon looks sad. He then asks his mum why the moon is sad. His mum tells him that the moon is sad because people are no longer caring about his friend, Earth. This made Leo think and think. The following day, he had a big idea on how to make the Earth clean and healthy again. Leo's idea spirals far and wide in a way he could never have imagined.

I liked how the author was able to capture this powerful message in a simple way. The book is organized such that one page has a text and the following one an illustration. This continues alternately through this short, engrossing, and informative book. There are also a few lines per page, making it ideal for children's short attention spans. I also liked the colorful illustrations; they complemented the text well. All this will make the intended audience, children, obtain the most out of it.

What I liked the most about this book was its message. The Earth needs a cleanup, and bringing this awareness to children deserves nothing but rounds of applause. Leo will act as a role model to children, as they can relate to him. He will give children the confidence that they, too, can have an impact that adults can emulate. Like Leo's big idea, this book should go viral.

Overall, there was nothing I disliked about this book. It was exceptionally well edited, as I found no errors. Therefore, I am pleased to give it five out of five stars. This children's book deserves nothing short of a perfect score.

I highly recommend this book to children from the age of two years onwards. I am saying 'onwards' because I feel even adults will love it. Educators and parents will also appreciate this informative picture book. This is one of the best children's books I've read, and I look forward to reading more from the author.

I absolutely love the idea behind this book and I know my son would also learn a lot from it. The illustrations sound amazing and perfectly created for children. We need more inspiration to get our Earth healthy again and to keep it healthy.

Saving our planet from environmental pollution is something that everyone should pay attention to. I like that the book teaches children about the adverse effects of environmental pollution. The simplicity is an added bonus.

A children's book that narrates the story of how Leo asked his mother why the moon was not happy and his mother told him that it was because people did not care for his friend, Earth again. The story also talks about how Leo thinks of a big idea to make the Earth clean and healthy once again. I like how this book would be a great book that children would learn how they can also make the Earth a better place again. Thanks for this great review.
