Kitten's First Full Moon was written and illustrated by one of my favorite authors, Kevin Henkes. This story is full of suspense as a kitten mistakes the full moon for a bowl of milk and tries to lick it! The illustrations in this book are black and white which is very different from many of the other books Henkes has illustrated, such as Wemberly Worried and Lilly's Purple Plastic Purse. The illustrations were done in charcoal and features thick, black outlines. It captures all the many shades of black. I think this was the perfect idea for the illustrations since the story takes place at night when the moon is full and bright.
