If My Moon Was Your Sun is a heartwarming yet poignant story about Max who doesn't want "The Great Forgetting" to take his grandfather away from him. As his grandfather's memory is slipping more and more, Max devises a plan to steal away his grandfather from his nursing home to a place his grandfather loves, a meadow in Blossom Valley. Max knows his well-intentioned kidnapping will come to an end, so he enjoys his time and his memories with his grandfather (and another escapee from the nursing home) while the time lasts.

It is a great read for anyone, child or adult, who is struggling with a loved one's memory failing them. If My Moon Was Your Sun reminds us to cherish the time we do have while knowing we'll always have deep rooted memories that will not be forgotten.
