Syl van Duyn — Hallo Aarde, Hier Maan (achterkant)

His name is Emmanuel Maas and his mother calls him Moon. Recently he lives with her in a new city. Gone is his old life. Gone friends. That's not easy.

Fortunately, Moon is very fond on his uncle Ge.

They should never have done it: moving to this new town. But Moon gets used to it and fortunately, Moon is very fond on his uncle Ge. In his new place, he sees Uncle Ge very often. This uncle knows everything about Moon's great hobby; stars, planets, the universe and he also learns Moon the secret Morse code. This is not just a language of dots and dashes, but a secret language. Most of all, Moon wants Uncle Ge to be his father, but then he won't have an uncle anymore and Moon wants them both.

That night Moon could not sleep. Seven more nights and then it would be Freckle's Birthday. What would he give her? At least something special. What did girls like? He didn't know.

'What do you see of the moon?' asked Uncle Ge. 'Mountains, seas and an American flag.' Uncle Ge laughed. 'I told you you can see almost anything with that telescope.'
