Luna Eclipse by Jan Meyer is a heartfelt story for people of all ages and ethnicities to enjoy but centers on a delightful mixed-race bear. Multiracial children are shaking up the way Americans think about race. Luna Eclipse helps them grow up with pride, confidence, and a strong sense of self. Is Luna's fur lighter than Mama's and darker than Papa's? Encouraging Luna's curiosity as she develops a racial identity helps assure her that a multiracial heritage is something to take pride in. I highly recommend this sensitively written book, Luna Eclipse.
