About the Author

AUTHOR Shirley Moulton, M.S., has been close, personal friends with Magic Moon for her entire life. He asked her to write some of his stories, so, naturally, she did! She has spent her entire professional career of over 35 years working with children who have disabilities (including but not limited to: autism, ADHD, behavior disorders, learning disabilities and other health impairments). She’s also worked with non-disabled and gifted children. Shirley Moulton has a Master of Science degree in Special Education, and two Bachelor’s degrees; one in Psychology and one in Special Education. She believes every child, whether classified with a disability or not, has many talents and gifts. She’s grateful she can continue to make a positive difference in children’s lives, now that she’s retired, by writing the Magic Moon Children’s Books series. She loves being a mother and a grandmother most of all!

Editorial Reviews

This children's chapter book [5th] finds practical and fanciful ways to promote environmentalism....Moulton...employs humor and the appeal of magic to enliven her...environment message...Dialogue reveals character well; for example, the children speak casually, while the scientists on Farni's world use a stuffier register--an amusing contrast to Magic Moon's directness. For example, after Magic Moon booms, "I'm right here!" the scientists reply with "It speaks?..What manner of being is this?"
