Moonling Adventures
The Serengeti
This is the continuation of The Little Girl in the Moon series. In this adventure, exciting things are happening in Tycho Town! The Little Girl in the Moon and her best friend, the Little Boy in the Moon, team up with their smart Moonling dogs, Shadow and Lola, to have a fun day. The adventure begins in the observatory on the Moon, where Shadow and Lola maneuver the large telescope in the ‘virtual reality’ simulator that takes off and heads to Earth. The Moonlings land their simulated spaceship in the Serengeti where the adventurers explore the exotic world of East Africa, learning about lots of wild animals in their natural habitats-giraffes, hippos, hyenas, and more! Climb aboard and see what the Moonlings have in store for you.
Moonling Adventures-The Serengeti is the first Moonling Adventure, with many more to come. Each new adventure introduces more Moonling vocabulary. The author hopes the book will inspire young and old to visit their nearest observatory and enjoy the wonders of space and Earth’s beauty.
Moxie & Tycho Town
The Little Girl in the Moon author, Diann Floyd Boehm has teamed up with her daughter, Katherine Louise, in the third book in the series, The Little Girl in the Moon – Moxie & Tycho Town.
Together, they have created the imaginary town nestled in Tycho Crater, which is located on the Earth’s moon. Katherine and Diann’s collaborative artistic talents have brought the town to life. The colorful illustrations are sure to spark young readers’ imaginations. Moxie, the little girl in the moon’s pet dog, takes us on a tour of Tycho Town’s City Center, which the Moonlings have built to resemble towns on Earth. Moonlings love the Earth as much As Earthling love the moon!
This story, the first of many adventures in Tycho Town, introduces children to the Moonlings vocabulary. Diann and Katherine hope the readers’ curiosity will grow and they’ll want to learn more about the Earth’s moon and Tycho Crater. Watch for the next adventure of The Little Girl in the Moon, when the rest of Tycho Town will be unveiled!

The Big Idea
Every night the little girl in the moon watches the earth from afar just like the earthlings gaze at the moon and wish upon the stars. One night she sees so many wishes not quite reaching the stars and she tells her mommy how it worries her. She wants, with all her heart, to help the wishes get to the stars so they will come true. Her mommy whispers a secret to her that sparks the little girl’s imagination. Before long the Little Girl in the Moon gets a ‘Big Idea’ and she and her Moonling friends write a song to go with it. All the Moonling families gather to sing the song and something very special happens. The ‘Big Idea’ works! And, for a moment in time, there is peace and harmony in the universe.
The Original Story…
An inquisitive little girl who lives on the moon wonders if earth children know about ‘Moonlings’. Her mom asks her if they did, what she would want the earth children to know about her life on the moon.
The little girl shares her thoughts on how she’s ‘just like them’ and with each illustration you see the connection of the earth and the moon. Creative depictions of each phase of the moon reveal a bit more of the little girl until eager readers finally see her bright smiling, full-moon face. She’s from a different place but deep down inside, she’s really ‘just like them’!
