Luna es una chica que vive muy arriba en el cielo, más arriba que cualquier otra persona. Curiosamente, Luna empezó a tener una afición muy especial entrañable: le gustaba coleccionar palabras. Prefería las palabras bonitas, aquellas palabras divertidas que al pronunciarlas te sacan una carcajada, y también aquellas que te llenaban el corazón de alegría y te hacían sentir feliz durante muchísimo tiempo. Pero llegó un día en que todo cambió, y las palabras que Luna había guardado con tanto mimo fueron desapareciendo una a una. «¿Qué estaba pasando?», se preguntaba Luna. Entonces, llegó a sus oídos un rumor: los hombres estaban olvidando las palabras bellas porque estaban demasiado ocupados y ya no les daban importancia… Pero ¡eso no suceder pasar de ninguna de las maneras! Decidida, Luna partió con sus bellas palabras a convencer a la humanidad de la importancia de compartir alegría y felicidad.


 

English Description:

Luna is a girl who lives high, high up in the sky. So high that her homeland couldn't be seen from the ground. She was an extraordinary little girl, one of a kind. Luna had the most special endearing pastime: she liked to collect words. She preferred beautiful words, those funny words that make you burst into laughter when you pronounce them, and also those that filled your heart with joy and embraced your soul for a very long time. But a day came when everything changed, and the words that Luna had guarded with so much care were disappearing one by one. “What was happening?”, Luna wondered. She found out what was causing the disaster―men were forgetting all the beautiful words. They did not think words were important anymore. No way would she let that happen! Determined and ready to find a solution, Luna set out with her beautiful words to convince humanity of the importance of sharing joy and happiness.
