Fonchito is a little boy with his heart set on winning the affection of his classmate Nereida. She is beautiful, and all he hopes for is her permission to kiss her on the cheek. But she is shy and agrees under only one condition: that Fonchito bring the moon to her. Bring her the moon? What is Fonchito to do? And in that moment his love inspires him to find a way to do the impossible.

This first children's book by Mario Vargas Llosa, one of the world's greatest writers, is an enchanting story about the magic in discovering how high you can reach for those you love, even if they ask for the moon.
