Aura Banana - A Children’s Board Book About the Moon Cycle

By Adi Barokas
Illustrated by Roni Barokas

A Bedtime Board Book for Toddlers & Kids Ages 1–5

Aura Banana is a warm and joyful children’s board book that introduces toddlers and young kids to the moon cycle in a fun, imaginative way. Inspired by a quiet moonlit moment between a mother and her son, this story helps little ones see the moon’s changing phases, and its resemblance to a banana in the night sky.

With its unique twist, connecting the moon and a banana, Aura Banana makes kids laugh, wonder, and dream, all while discovering the light they carry inside. The playful illustrations bring the magic of the night sky to life while the gentle rhymes and soothing repetition create a calming read-aloud routine.

Although Aura Banana makes a perfect bedtime story, this sweet children’s book can be enjoyed at any time of day – during morning cuddles, afternoon quiet time, or playtime breaks.

At the end of the book, kids will discover a real mirror, letting them see themselves as part of the story and reminding them that they shine just like the moon.

In this bedtime book, children learn how to say moon in English, Spanish, Hebrew, French, Italian and Japanese! Currently available in English and Hebrew, Aura Banana is perfect for multicultural families.

Aura Banana comes with a gentle lullaby that extends the story into music, creating a calming bedtime ritual. Available on Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube and more.
