Melina, Juan’s cat, is only happy when the moon is round and white. But the moon comes and goes, and the cat gets sad when she sees the moon wane. Juan gets sad because of the sadness of Melina, and so his friend Pedro, a painter, helps Juan and paints a huge full moon.In this story, Liliana Bodoc presents us a metaphor in which a child, a pet and a painter take part, and shows how it is possible to solve, with the help of an artifice, the absence or the loss, when love is the mediator.
