A little boy describes his journey to the moon and what he needs to survive the trip. He gives an accurate account of the effects of the environment on him: the heat of the moon and the effects of gravity and orange juice and playing cards. The boy reflects on the difference between the moon and the Earth. Once he returns home, the boy never looks at the moon in quite the same way and will cherish life on Earth.
