Bedtime Story: The Cat and the Moon on the Roof
There was a little cat named Mimi. That night, Mimi caught three mischievous mice in a row and sat on the high roof, watching the moon rise in the sky. The moon was thin and curved.
Mimi noticed that the moon seemed a bit unhappy tonight. Her curved face was tense, and her mouth was tightly pursed.
Mimi asked the moon why she was unhappy.
The crescent moon said, “I’m just unhappy today. I went out and felt sad!”
Mimi said, “Crescent moon, if you think about happy things, you’ll feel cheerful.”
“Really?” The crescent moon looked at the cheerful little cat Mimi and suddenly laughed happily.
Mimi asked the moon why she suddenly became happy. The crescent moon replied, “I realized that my curved face looks like the tip of a happy cat’s curved tail.”
Mimi looked back, and indeed, the crescent moon looked like the tip of his curved tail. The two happy friends started to sing together: “The crescent moon smiles gently, like the tip of a cat’s tail…”
Another Night
There was a little cat named Mimi.
That night, Mimi didn’t catch a single mouse. He sat on the high roof, crying incessantly.
A round moon rose. The round moon looked like a happy, smiling face. She asked Mimi, “Why are you crying so sadly?”
Mimi said, “Today is really unlucky. I didn’t catch a single mouse!”
The round moon said, “Don’t be sad. Look at the happy round moon. Your eyes will sparkle like stars.”
“Really?” Mimi tried to open his eyes wide and looked at the happy round moon. Mimi also became happy. Mimi went to the ground and caught five mischievous mice in a row.
Mimi returned to the high roof and saw the round moon had risen above his head.
The round moon looked at the cheerful little cat Mimi. The two happy friends sang together again: “Look at the happy round moon, eyes sparkling like stars…”
