MOANA / MOANA AND THE OCEAN / THE STORY OF MOANA / ART of COLORING: MOANA / Book Reviews #Moana


MOANA is out on DVD TODAY! I highly recommend picking up this movie. It is one of our favorites. We loved seeing it in the theaters, and we'll be watching it again today. In addition to picking up the DVD, check out these fabulous MOANA movie tie in books. I've shared these on social media back in December, but I feel like they need a little more love. We really enjoyed these books. They're ones fans of MOANA will definitely want to pick up.

I would be most content if my children grew up to be the kind of people who think decorating consists mostly of building enough bookshelves. ~ Anna Quindlen

Good children's literature appeals not only to
the child in the adult, but to the adult in the child.
