Many Moons by James Thurber illustrated by Louis Slobodkin*

 The Caldecott Medal-1944

The King's daughter, Lenore, becomes ill. She claims if the King brings her the moon, she will become better. Summoning his wise men, he demands they capture the moon. Each one denies the possibility. The least likely individuals accomplish the mission. Humor and wit abound.

*Highly recommend.

-Borrowed from the library. (My local used bookstore has a few copies of this book. I intend to buy it. I love clever books!)
