Before
Monica goes to bed, she looks out of her window and sees the Moon. The Moon
looks so beautiful. "I wish I could get the Moon," thinks Monica. But
no matter (无论) how
hard she tries, she cannot get the Moon. "Papa," Monica says to her
father, "please get the Moon for me."
Papa
gets a very long ladder (梯子). He carries the very long ladder to a very high mountain. Then Papa
puts the very long ladder on top (顶部) of it. Up and up
he climbs. At last, Papa gets to the Moon.
"My
daughter Monica would like to play with you, but you are much too big," says
Papa.
"Every
night I get a little smaller," says the Moon. "When I am just the
right size, you can take me with you." After a few days, Papa takes it.
Down and down he climbs.
"Here,"
Papa says to Monica, "I have the Moon for you." Monica jumps and
dances with the Moon. But the Moon keeps getting smaller and smaller. And at
last, it disappears. Then, one night, Monica sees a small Moon come out. Each night
the Moon grows, grows and grows.
