Abstract
In recent years the analysis of the contents of written or iconic language of stories and text books has been revealed to be especially interesting and also opens up the hidden curriculum which directs educational action. Nevertheless there is insubstancial (only a few of the works) work that analyses or questions the scientific content which stories and science text book convey. In this study we try to show the persistent association of the night with the Moon which is a conceptual error that is generalised in story imagery. These errors are apparently without importance, but later however, can increase and strengthen erroneous ideas.
