It is mid-autumn festival time again and Mr Ming is busy in his shop baking the most delicious mooncakes you have ever tasted. Everyone wants to know the ingredients in Mr Ming' s mooncakes, but he won' t tell them, as the recipe is an old family secret. He won' t even let anyone into his kitchen. That' s because he has another secret, a secret even bigger than his secret mooncake recipe. Mr Ming has. . . a dragon!Madame Moneybag doesn' t know that though, and she is determined to steal Mr Ming' s prize-winning mooncake recipe for herself. When she breaks into Mr Ming' s shop, the dragon hears her and goes to investigate. When he sees the thief reading the recipe book, he becomes so angry that hot flames shot from his mouth! Then a fireball bounces out and shoots up into the sky, taking Madame Moneybag with it. It doesn' t stop until it hits the moon. Boom!The next evening, little Ah Beng comes to help his grandfather in the shop after school, and when they look up at the mid-autumn moon together, they discover something rather unusual indeed. A charming, playful story about the beauty of the mid-autumn festival, based on the 3,000-year-old Chinese legend of the lady in the moon.
