Riassunto

Un uuchchcht de la cerbatana del abuelo, hace que Luna se caiga del cielo y se parta en pedazos sobre el fondo del mar. Esta leyenda maya, llena de hermosos detalles, cuenta cómo la luna debe rescatarse a sí misma, con la ayuda de los pececitos quienes la pegan de nuevo. Cuando al fin se levanta, hermosa y redonda otra vez, invita a sus amigos a vivir en el cielo y a formar la Vía Láctea.
