This book consists of 16 small chapters, each answering one particular aspect of the moon. It is written in the format of an autobiography. It is very readable in view of its language as well as the font size used in printing. Moon, the only satellite of the earth, has been an object of immense interest to astronomers, planetary scientists, the general public, poets, romantics and children. Its changing phases have been a source of curiosity and many folklore stories are abundant in literature.
