Working late at his desk in his office one night,
the man raised his head as the space filled with light.
Moonbeams and memories flooded the room
as did his longing of owning the moon . . .
An over-indulged little boy grows into a very wealthy man who has everything he could possibly want on Earth. There is only one thing left that he MUST have – the moon he coveted as a child.
Plans are drawn, machines built and factories sent spluttering into the air. Giant towers grow up and up and up. Soon the moon is nearly within the man’s grasp – but someone else wants it too. Their tug of war ends in disaster when the moon shatters into a thousand pieces. It is up to the children to come to the rescue . . .
A richly-detailed and heartwarming story with an important message about greed, happiness – and where NOT to look for it.

The little boy always cried, doesn't matter what his parents gave him…toys, sweets, train. they think if the boy has a friend it's gonna help…but no. he tells them that he wants the moon. and his dream comes through

They were both greedy people but worked together in the end.

It was interesting because he did a machine to get to the moon, and then they broke the moon , the people was sad. On the final they managed to fix the moon with glue and everybody helped.
