About Brother Moon

Brother Moon is a tender story of family, culture, and connection to Country. Hippy-Boy is captivated when Great-Grandpa Liman tells him the mysterious story of his brother and how he serves as a guide for hunting, fishing, and understanding the natural world. This beautifully illustrated story invites readers to reflect on the wisdom passed down through generations and the importance of listening to and respecting nature.
