The moon is a planet.  It is a satelite of the Earth, because the moon orbits the Earth.  It is the closest planet to Earth.  The moon is pretty when you look at it at night.  It's round, yellow, very shiny.  It looks larger and shinier than all other stars on the night sky.  Humans like to look at the moon when they are with someone they love - it's romantic.  The moon always faces the Earth with the same side.
