I liked this story a lot. In a tale like this you expect one of the princes to succeed and marry the princess. In this tale all the princes are foolish and the fail. The princess takes care of her parents until their deaths, after which she returns to the moon. Awesome.

Also, I loved the note from the illustrator at the end about how she chose a different bamboo to represent each prince's personality. I hadn't even noticed the bamboo borders when I was reading the book (I'm not the most visual person, I prefer words), so it was really interesting to go back to each illustration and see the work that was put into it.
