Description

Luna Raccoon is a playful, positive story for the young and young at heart about three friends, Luna Raccoon, Atticus Rabbit (Atty), and Mouse. Through the silliness of young friends and the excitement of a little adventure, “Luna Raccoon” reinforces the valuable human qualities of friendship and trust, belief in oneself, creativity, and imagination.

Luna Raccoon comes alive with the beautiful watercolor illustrations of Christiane Gozashti and Ray Porter's brilliant narration, with unique characterizations for each of the story's three friends.

"Luna Raccoon is a heartwarming story of three friends who help one another through things that seem big to a child and unnoticeable to an adult. Though these characters are all very different, they all worry and wonder about things a young child worries and wonders about. Their friendship is the kind of homey, down-to-earth friendship we all depend on. Together, they experience each other’s hopes and dreams and solve problems along the way. My three and six year olds have listened to this story over and over and experience something new each time. Luna Raccoon will make big people remember their childhoods and leave little people wanting to learn more about their good friends, Luna, Atty and Mouse.”

    Luna Raccoon had all the right elements you'd want in a book for story time. It was a lighthearted story with adventure. The cast of entertaining and playful characters encouraged creativity, compassion, and friendship. I found the artwork charming and whimsical and very reminiscent of Frog and Toad are Friends and other similiar classics. Looking forward to the sequels.
  • Excellent read for kids

    A great piece of children's literature and artwork!!! The rhythm of the words captured me, teasing my brain with an enjoyable cadence. So as a Grandfather i instantly wanted my grandkids to have LUNA RACCOON as their "friend". The audio/Narration grasped the flow of the characters and story. Ray Porter's voice(s) added great nuances, enabling the reader (listener) to envision these colorful characters and their accents!!! My family is waiting for the sequel with great anticipation. I will recommend LUNA RACCOON to all!
  • Delightful and fun!

    Like walking through an enchanted forest, that's what it felt like reading this amazing children's book. The illustrations, the story and of course the additional audio from a great actor. I love that I can use this book to read to my children and/or have them read it themselves…... or have Ray Porter read it to them for me… Its an all around great book that any child will probably want to read over and over again.
