kaskeels's review against another edition
5.0
Moon Rope is a bilingual English/Spanish picture book based on the Peruvian myth of "The Fox and the Mole." The myth explains why the mole is nocturnal and why there is a fox face in the moon. The Fox and the mole want to go to the moon. The Fox, with the help of some birds, hooks a rope onto the tip of a crescent moon. Together, Fox and Mole climb up but Mole falls down and is embarrassed. Now Mole will only come out a night. This is a fantastic book for all ages, including adults who are trying to learn Spanish. The illustrations are based on Peruvian textiles and the book as a whole is a great learning tool for myths and folklore.
