Hello! My name is Mouse, and I live in Kaw City. My mother Pandi won’t let me leave the box because I’m too little. I have white fluffy fur, baby-blue eyes, and a bobtail (whatever that means).

Today, I’ve got a plan to escape from this boring box so I can roam free. O’Boy! I shall climb the mountain and get to the fresh green grass my mother told me about. I’ll never get caught!

Ah ha – mom just jumped out of the box. One claw up and then another – almost there. Man, my baby sister Lilly just had to wake up and scream. She won’t stop! “Be quiet!” She is just a brat out to get me.

Oh geez. Mom’s back. Picking me up by the neck, she put me right next to her, but I will rise again.
