Anchor Moon

by Amy Walker

Some children have comfort blankets, others have their favourite nursery rhyme or book that they must have before they can go to sleep each night.

Anchor Moon is all three combined. Anchor Moon is the ultimate hug before drifting off into a beautiful sleep, full of hopes and dreams. The story is the latest must-read for children before bed. Comforting, exciting and opens the mind to your own world of imagination, fun and, of course, adventure.

The main character, Rupel, is quite like any other child, longing for magical adventures. One stormy night, he voyages on the most exciting journey as Captain Screye needs Rupel’s help in sailing to the moon to hide his treasure from the pirates. As Rupel flies over the roof-tops and into space, he looks back at the world, amazed at its beauty in lights.

Rupel meets his new best friend, Ronnie the Robot, and they embark on lots of fun on the moon. Rupel discovers how courageous he can be and realises the endless possibilities there are when he just believes. Heart-warming and comforting, this story will live in the hearts of many children, who will then pass it on to their own children one day, for even adults need a little bit of hope and magic in their lives.

About the author

I live in the Pacific Northwest with my family and authored the non-fiction book "Surviving the Church: Restoring Hope to Your Faith." I enjoy encouraging others and helping them to strengthen their faith. When people ask me what I do I hesitate and the line by Michael Keaton from "The Dream Team" runs through my head-"Well, that depends on the circumstances, Ed."

I DO so many things, including homeschooling my kids, making things, writing, traveling. Now I can add "author" to the list. Every day is a new experience full of potential. I like watching movies, hanging out with my family and discovering new places whether its a National Park or the World's Largetst Frying Pan.

I'm a firm believer that God is in the details. I've entrusted my life and soul over to Him. I have seen Him move in both small and big ways in my life and the life of others consistently and amazingly.

I was drawn to this book by the cover illastration and was pleasantly surprised with the content inside. What a wonderful bedtime read for the young ones its a first to go to for my little ones now they love it. The author clearly understands the need for our children to believe and dream again, well done.

Nice adventure story. A boy, a pirate, a robot and space travel in pajamas! All in a space pirate ship powered by butterflies. Quite imaginative. The book features rhyming text, so it's a good bedtime story. I wish the text pages weren't on a black background, which is in contrast to the bright, colorful illustrations. But it is a space travel story, so maybe that is understandable.
