    I saw the harvest moon this morning on the way to school it was not like any moon I have seen before it looked like it was glowing it was a yellow orange color. The reason why the harvest moon comes out this time of the year is because it tells people it is time to harves their crops.

    I don't understand there are lots of full moons every year. So what's so special about this one?

    I think that the harvest moon is really cool, and the fact that it actually helps farmers know when to harvest is kind of amazing. Who would have thought that a random stage of the moon could be so helpful in the growing of food?
