Summary

"In a stunning debut, Melmed combines standard fairy tale devices (a wish granted by magic; a series of trials to prove worthiness; virtue rewarded, etc.) in a wholly original story featuring the most fetching cast of little ones since the Dionne quintuplets. Melmed's writing is flawless..." --- Publisher's Weekly

The moon presents a childless couple with twelve tiny babies, which they care for with tenderness and love. In the end they are rewarded with their hearts desire - a real child to cherish forever.
