O menino que queria viver na lua
Menezes, a 12-year-old boy, dreams of living on the moon to escape the challenges of social life. He faces several obstacles in his quest, learns important lessons about tolerance, and discovers that running away isn't the solution.
Menezes always felt out of place at school. He struggled to make friends and often felt misunderstood. One night, while gazing at the moon, he thought, 'Maybe life would be easier up there.' Menezes decided he wanted to live on the moon to escape his social struggles. But how could he get there?
The next day, Menezes shared his idea with his best friend, Lucas. - You can't just go to the moon, Lucas said. - I have to try, Menezes replied. He started gathering materials to build a rocket, but soon realized he had no idea how rockets worked.
Menezes asked his science teacher for help. - Living on the moon isn't just about getting there, it's about surviving there, the teacher explained. Menezes felt overwhelmed by the complexities of space travel. Discouraged, he wondered if his dream was impossible. But he wasn't ready to give up just yet.
After several failed attempts to build a functional rocket, Menezes felt defeated. - Maybe Lucas was right, he thought. - I'll never make it to the moon. He sat in his room, surrounded by broken rocket parts, feeling more alone than ever. His mother noticed his sadness.
- Why do you want to go to the moon so badly, his mother asked. - I don't fit in here, Menezes replied. She hugged him and said, - Running away won't solve your problems. Let's find a way to help you feel better here. Menezes realized he needed to face his social challenges instead of escaping them.
With his mother's support, Menezes joined a club at school and started making new friends. He learned that everyone has their own struggles and that tolerance and understanding are key. Menezes no longer felt the need to escape to the moon. He realized that he could find happiness right where he was.
