Is the structure and format easy for the reader? The structure is somewhat easy for the reader.
Is the dialog appropriate for the speaker?Indeed.
My two cents is only one opinion. Overall impressions:A nice opening with Dan and Noel. The first nine lines are strong with a good childrens flow.
A well written tale, however, keep in mind that children like us these days have a very short attention span.
For a children's book, I would definitely consider illustrations. More line spacing and probably a different font and font size. Keep in mind in these modern high paced times children to have a short attention span and don't expect things to be as long as they once were.
LBurks thank you for sharing this work it has been a joy to read it.
Suggestions: Consider the suggestions above. More line spacing, different font and font size. A good edit. Add some illustrations.
Form, Format, Rhyme and Meter: 'One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.' Such a strong phrase that was imprinted on my mind a few years back in 1969 when in the 1st grade we were allowed to watch the moon landing on closed circuit TV. This work has sent this reader back in time.
1969 is a well worded and powerful 75 word free verse style fantasy poem.
Artistic Voice and Imagery: I see the image of a peaceful, enlightened race visiting our moon. When suddenly their peaceful and tranquil environment is interrupted by the noise of a loud spaceship landing on the moon with an annoying and arrogant race who think they are the only ones that exist.
Grammar, Spelling and Mechanics: No problems that I can find with the mechanics of this powerful poem that has sent this reader back in time.
