《English Translation》
小宝: Look, big brother! The moon is so round. It looks like a big mooncake!
小刚: Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, so the moon is big and round. See those dark patches on it? Don't they look like a rabbit?
小宝: They do! Is the rabbit all alone on the moon?
小刚: The story says that Chang'e lives on the moon too. She can't go home, so she only has the little rabbit to keep her company.
小宝: She can't go home? Then she must really miss home.
小刚: Yeah. The Mid-Autumn Festival is a time for families to reunite. Everyone goes home, eats mooncakes together, and admires the moon.
小宝: Admiring the moon just means looking at the moon, right? But Dad didn't come back. Can't he come home either?
小刚: Dad works too far away from home. But he can see this same moon from where he is. Let's video-call him and look at it together.
小宝: Okay! I want to show Dad my mooncake. I saved half of it for him!
