Annotation: The story begins with kitten’s first full moon. The kitten saw the moon and thought it was milk and wanted it. Kitten closed her eyes and began to lick however she only caught a bug on her tongue. So the kitten tried to jump for the milk. She found herself on the floor with a pinched tail and a bump on her nose. So the kitten chased the bowl of milk all through the yard but she never reached the bowl. Kitten then climbed the tree and still could not reach the bowl of milk. Now she was a scared kitten.
