Brave as a Mouse

Mouse sees Fish swimming in his bowl and asks if Fish would like to play. Of course, Fish wants to play! And play they do, but then three big black cats come into the room. Mouse doesn’t think they want to play, but he has a wild idea. Mouse is very brave. He has to be very brave to trick those three cats into leaving Fish alone. And it almost goes very badly, but luck is on Mouse’s side. The cats eat a very big meal, so they need a nap. Mouse has another wild idea and gets his friends to help him make sure Fish will be able to play much more than he ever could in his little fishbowl.
