4ème de couverture : Sometimes at night, when she[1], the moon, is sad because the stars, out of laziness, refuse to shine, she approaches the earth very quietly. In a clear voice, the moon asks the horned owl[2] perched on a branch to tell her a story. So the owl takes up playing the role of storyteller for the amusement of his friend, the moon. He sometimes tells jokes, or regales her with an anecdote that the sun had narrated to him before going to sleep. Amazed by these stories, the moon smiles and shines brilliantly.
