Grace Purdie Moon (1877-1947) and Carl Moon (1879- 1948) were American authors and illustrators of children's books about Native Americans. Carl Moon spent six years' apprenticing with various photographers in Cincinnati, Ohio, and Wheeling, West Virginia, before opening his own studio in Albuquerque, New Mexico. He met Grace Purdie in 1909, on a trip to the Grand Canyon where he had moved to work for the Fred Harvey Company. After their marriage, they moved to Pasadena, California, to open their own studio. Grace focused on writing. Her works hold a sympathetic and respectful attitude towards her native American heroes. Carl Moon's paintings were used as illustrations for his wife's books. Their works include: Indian Legends in Rhyme (1917), Lost Indian Magic (1918), Wongo and the Wise Old Crow (1923), Chi-Wee: The Adventures of a Little Indian Girl (1925), Nadita (Little Nothing) (1927), The Runaway Papoose (1928), The Missing Katchina (1930), The Book of Nah-Wee (1932), Tita of Mexico (1934), Singing Sands (1936) and Daughter of Thunder (1942).
