For a long time, the animals had wanted to find out what the moon tasted like. Was it sweet or salty? They only wanted to taste a little piece. At night, they longingly gazed up at the sky. They reached up and tried to catch it, stretching their necks, their legs and their arms. But however hard they tried, not even the biggest animal could reach it.
One day, the little tortoise decided to climb up the highest mountain so she could touch the moon.
From up there, the moon was closer; but the tortoise couldn’t reach it.
And so she called the elephant.
