Look for the Harvest Moon


Look for a gorgeous globe in the sky starting around 6:30 pm this Sunday night, October 4. It is the Harvest Moon. This is when there is not much of a gap between sundown and a full moonrise. Traditionally, this was when farmers used the extra light to harvest their crops into the night. Go here to find out more info to share with your kids. Here are some library book ideas for your little farmers: Hello Harvest Moon by Ralph Fletcher or Possum's Harvest Moon by Anne Hunter.
