This colorfully illustrated children's book tells a Chinese fairy tale about the monkey king and his attempt to capture the moon.

He ordered all the monkeys to climb to the top of the mountain and form a monkey ladder, standing on one another's shoulders. The smallest monkey was on top, trying to pluck the moon from the sky. The little monkey tried hard but simply could not reach it. The king, looking down in disappointment, saw the moon in a pool down below.

The little monkey reached into the water to scoop up the shining moon, but all he got was...a few drops of water.
