Sighing, Dinah says, \"I think that we are quite likely to be bad, however hard we try not to be,\" and her sister, Dorinda, adds helpfully, \"Very often, when we think we are behaving well, some grown-up person says we are really quite bad. It's difficult to tell which is which.\" Sure enough, the mischievous sisters soon convince a judge that minds must be changed as often as socks, stage an escape from the local zoo (thanks to a witch's potion that turns them into kangaroos), and--in the company of a golden puma and silver falcon--set off to rescue their father from the tyrant of Bombardy. A tale of hilarity and great adventure, \u003ci\u003eThe Wind on the Moon \u003c\/i\u003eis also a work of high seriousness; after all, \"life without freedom,\" as the valiant puma makes clear, \"is a poor, poor thing.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Nyrb Kids\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/07\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781681371030\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 376\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.50h x 5.10w x 0.90d","brand":"Eric Linklater","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43166136598709,"sku":"9781681371030","price":12.74,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_49dc11d8-f50c-4bc6-be1e-160474319ccc.jpg?v=1696921017","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/the-wind-on-the-moon-9781681371030","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
