At the very beginning, the gods ruled over the world. With their special skill they had created beautiful plants and amazing animals. They also used their extraordinary powers and created the human race. But all was not complete, Zeus, the kings of gods worked with Apollo and created the sun and the moon.
The sun was as bright as a gold shinny coin, and bigger than all the other planets, but when it got angry it was angry. But on the other hand the moon was calm like a cumber and it was a little bit bright, it only got angry when it did not get it one way.
The sun and the moon were the best of friends, and nobody was going to wreck their friend ship. But one day the sun and the moon started a quarrel, the sun said to the moon,
“I’m going to Earth because I’m more powerful than you”
“NO ME!”
NO ME!”
“NO ME!”
“NO ME!”
Zeus steeped in and said; “Sun you are brighter you go” the moon was furious like a raging bull.
So the next day the sun went down to Earth for the whole day and the people started to complain one man said, “It’s too hot and this is giving me and my children are getting sun burned,” and our bare skin are pealing us. Another lady complained and said, “She could not get any rest. When the sun heard about this he was horrified. While the moon was laughing like a hinnies. “They don’t like you”
“Well we shall see tomorrow if they like you.”
So the next day the moon went do down to Earth for the whole day, the moon was not as bright as the sun. But the public started to complain once again, one very healthy man said, “I can’t go on my 6kilometres run.”
One teacher said, “I need to teach the children but I can’t because it too dark.” The moon was sad like a dreadful man. Ha they don’t like you to.
So the next day the next day the sun and the moon went to the king of god, Zeus, the sun and the moon spoke simultaneous, “ this is not working the public are complaining, Zeus said
“How about you take turns 12 hours for the both of you,” they both agreed. Then the sun went down to Earth for 12 hours and the Moon went down for the other 12 hours and this for the both of them.
The public were happy that they had 12 hours of day and 12 hours of night.
