  • Bluey and The Great Spirit Moon

    Robert Hanson

    Paperback (BalboaPressAU, Feb. 4, 2013)
    Bluey and The Great Spirit Moon is inspired by a true story, ours. We all came from innocence. We were all children once. Then we grow up to become aware of our past and present world, good and bad. It is an allegory based on our history and our hope to create peaceful, prosperous change for everyone. If we believe in love, and if we forgive the past, we can do it! This hand drawn picture book is an adaptation of my animated feature film project. I've written the screenplay, drawn the artwork and composed and recorded the soundtrack on multiple instruments. Visit the web site, Bluey.com to listen to the music of Bluey and The Great Spirit Moon, including Bluey's live video of 'Somebody Like Me.' Follow 'Bluey's News' to find out what he's up to here on Earth. And please check out the Bluey and Hope plush dolls. Thanks to my family for their encouragement, support and unconditional love. This book is dedicated to them and to my extended family, the human race.
