Why We Have the Moon—A Folk Tale

by Stefie

Paul Bunyan made a huge ball of cheese out of the milk from his pet ox Benny. The Cheese was so big that towns would claim ownership to portions of the cheese and try to eat it. But there was just too much cheese. Soon it began to mold and stink up the world. How would they be rid of this mass of stink? Paul had an idea. He stuffed the cheese ball into his special cannon and then fired it into space. And that's why we have the moon. The big depressions in the moon were caused by the townsfolk who claimed portions and ate of the cheese.


I know it is weird...it's meant to be that way! Tell me, what do you think? Thanks for responding!
