Once upon a time in the dark of the moon
there was a little raccoon. 
He lived down in a big warm chestnut tree 
with his mother -- who was also a raccoon.
This little raccoon wanted to see the night.
He had seen the day.
So he said to his mother, 
"I want to go out in the woods and see the night."

But his mother said, "Wait. Wait til the moon is full."
So he waited, deep in his warm little home under the chestnut tree.

So the little raccoon waited and wondered, while the moon got bigger and bigger and bigger. Until at last, on a very special evening, the moon was full.
