The Buried Moon

 This morning's moon was large and luminous hiding behind the clouds before it set.  I always love moon books. 

The Buried Moon 
Joseph Jacobs
pictures by Susan Jeffers 1969

Susan Jeffers' drawings are dark and mysterious in this tale about how the moon gets caught and buried so that all the boggles and horrors of the darkness can have their way in the night.  This old story comes from Joseph Jacobs' More English Fairy Tales from 1893.
