The Romance of the Moon

"The Romance of the Moon" by John Ames Mitchell is a creative story that uses poetic language to look at love and jealousy through the eyes of planets and stars. The Moon is portrayed as someone special, facing a love triangle with the Earth and the powerful Sun, while Saturn, full of jealousy, causes problems because he also loves the Moon. When the Earth shows his feelings, a big fight happens in space, but the Moon picks the Earth, even though they must keep their love hidden and only meet at night. The tale combines love, jealousy, and space relationships in a fun way, making readers think about the possibilities inside the cosmos.
