"Creatures of the Moon" is a coming-of-age story that will challenge the bounds of reality just enough to create elements of strangeness, curiosity, and surprise. Set in the 1960s, it brings young readers into a world they've never known and provides older readers with a world of nostalgia.
An encounter with a mysterious old man who lives in a swamp results in a very bright thirteen-year-old boy discovering something spectacular. His discovery could fascinate the scientific community, as well as the news media. Disclosure to the public, however, might lead to its destruction.
Gradually, he shares this life-altering experience with a few trusted friends, each delightful in his or her own way. Their teamwork and growing affection for each other are endearing and admirable as they navigate the challenges of this bizarre adventure.
