A cute kitten mistakes the moon for a bowl of milk and through a series of disastrous attempts to lick the full white moon, falls, tumbles down stairs, and even gets a bug on her tongue! But despite failure after failure, the exhausted kitten finds what she's looking for- right on her front porch. An inspiring story with elements of repetition and rhythmic prose, perfect for readers of all ages.
