    FROM SARAH:

    This fascinating picture book introduces readers to the real Moonlight Schools of early‑1900s Kentucky, where adults who never had the chance to learn to read attended classes at night. It’s hopeful and inspiring, and the perfect compliment to Waxwing’s own Books Up the Mountain.

    FROM THE PUBLISHER:

    Best-selling Kentucky author Kim Michele Richardson’s delightful picture book is based on the early twentieth century’s real-life Moonlight Schools, pairing engaging, authentic text with vibrant, energetic artwork to craft a heartfelt and timely reminder of the power of education to connect and change lives.
