Summary:
Kitten´s First Full Moon by Kevin Henkes won a 2005 Caldecott Medal for its illustrations. While sitting on the stairs, Kitten sees a small bowl of milk in the night sky. However, she cannot get to it even when she chases and reaches for it. When she climbs up a tree, she sees what seems to be an even larger bowl of milk. Really seeing the reflection of the moon, she get soaking wet when she jumps into the water. In the end of real bowl of milk is left out for Kitty.
Instead of using his normal bright and colorful illustrations, Henkes uses blacks, whites, and muted grays that give the book a more retro look.
