This story looks at two ways to obtain a good- either to swap (barter) another good for it or by buying it with money. Some children want slices of watermelon from Mr Moon’s stand at the outdoor market. One swaps his hat for a slice, another trades some flowers, and another exchanges some feathers. The last child in line has no swapping goods, but has enough money to buy a slice of watermelon.
