The Moon Fell into the Chimney
On a winter night, even the moon couldn’t bear the cold. Suddenly, it saw a little chimney not far away. “Let’s go over there to warm up!” The moon quickly nestled beside the little chimney.
At this moment, the little chimney was not emitting smoke, only warm air.
The moon, with its round body, sat beside the chimney, warming itself here and there. It felt much warmer than before.
“What a great place I’ve found!” Just as the moon was feeling pleased with itself, it lost its balance and fell into the chimney, startling the old woman who was warming herself by the fire. “Oh my, could that be a snowball falling in? I hope it doesn’t put out the fire, it’s so cold outside!”
The old woman added some firewood to the stove and started working the bellows.
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…”
A big gust of wind blew inside the stove, and the flames, sparks, and a bit of smoke were all stirred up.
Before the moon could figure out what was happening, it was lifted by a surge of hot air, rising higher and higher, and soon it was back outside the chimney.
The moon wasn’t hurt, but the smoky, scorching experience was quite unpleasant!
Gurgling, gurgling! The moon quickly spun its round body and went back home.
