The Night the Moon Fell: A Maya Myth

When a puff from her grandfather's blowgun sends Luna tumbling out of the sky, she falls into the deep ocean below. Frightened and alone, she is rescued by kindly fishes who help piece her back together and lift her once more into the night sky. Based on a traditional Mopan Maya myth from Belize, this lyrical picture book brings an ancient legend to vivid new life for young readers, celebrating imagination, community, and the wonder of the moon.
