From the Publisher
By award-winning Waterstones Children's Laureate Joseph Coelho, the first book in the Luna Loves... series.
Every week Luna looks forward to one special day: the day when she discovers magic among the library shelves, the day she gets to spend with her dad. Exploring the books, Luna and her dad find magic, mystery and even start to mend their own history.
An inspiring story that celebrates alternative families and the magic of books from one of the UK's greatest award-winning poets for children, and Children's Laureate, Joseph Coelho.
