"Moon Rope" is a good book for students in the upper elementary school grades to read because it is a little more wordy and lengthy than the usual childrens book. It is a bilingual book, so if you have English Language Learners in your classroom they will enjoy reading something without having to ask for help with figuring out what words mean.

Fox and mole attempt to climb to the moon in this telling of a Peruvian folktale.

Text in both Spanish and English. A pourquoi story explaining why moles live underground and why there's a fox in the moon. Illustrations are large and good for story hours; it was enjoyed by the third graders.

Moon Rope is an adaptation of a Peruvian folktale translated into Spanish. The surprise in in the moon!
