This is not a true storey but you can learn a big lesson if you listen carefully.
Mick the mouse did not want to be a mouse, he wanted to be a Condor. A Condor is the largest bird in the world with the widest wing span.
Mick dreamed of souring on the wind and never having to flap his wings. Oh to go so high and see forever and ever.
Sometimes it not good to wish for something which might not be good for you. Learning to be a good mouse is what Mick should have wanted.
Wanting the wrong thing, most time makes you unhappy.
That night Mick the mouse had a dream. He was given a Condor’s body.
Now his problems started. The first thing that happened, when he tried to fly he found he could not take off.
His parents had taught him to be a good mouse. What Mick did not know, was the only way for a Condor to take off requires a fifteen knot head wind. Mick did not know this important information. So he ran as fast as he could and jumped off the cliff, determined to find what flying was like.
If only he would be happy , being what he was suppose to be, he would not have hurt himself.
He tumbled down the cliff face getting bruses and scratches that hurt so much, till finally he fell off a ledge and gained flying speed.
Oh flying was wonderful. It was true, he could see for ever and ever into the distance. It was also true he did not have to flap his wings.
Because he was a mouse he did not know the higher you go the colder it gets. Above him was, big black clouds of a thunder storm and the rising air was sucking him higher and higher and he did not know how to come down.
When the lighting and thunder started he got very frightened and started to cry. Then hail, frozen rain started to hit him and then he got sucked into the cloud and could not see the ground any more.
“Oh I wished I stayed a mouse!” he thought.
He was so happy to wake up and find it had been all a bad dream.
He told all his friends never wish to be something your not supposed to be.
He had learned a very important lesson, coveting has bad consequences.
You ask your parents to explain those big words.

Now good night from Lu Lu.

Mick the mouse had so much to learn.
He told everyone that from now on he just wanted to stay a mouse and learn to be a good one.
Mick’s parents had taught him about the dangers of Cats.
Mick’s home was under the floor boards of a big old house. Their home did not have a door, just a small hole where a knot of wood had fallen out. It was a perfect door for mice, just big enough to get through but too small for Cats.
Have you ever heard of the seven deadly sin of greed?
Mick the mouse came out late at night to find food.
He would always look out the hole to see if the Cat was waiting to catch him.
To his amazement just outside his hole was a huge piles of food laying on the ground. That day had been some ones birthday party and there was a lot of food left over. This was the most food Mick had ever seen. So he started having a feast. It was so nice. Chocolate cake, sandwiches and best of all cream puffs.
Mick eat and eat and eat, till he could eat no more. He was being a greedy mouse. Then because of his greed, he nearly got caught by the Cat. He saw the Cat coming and ran for the hole but he was so fat with food he could not fit through the hole to his house.
“Help, help!” he called to his family. “Help the Cat!”
His family came running to the hole in the boards that was the entrance to their home to find Mick stuck half way in. His family grabbed both his hands and pulled with all their might. Mick poped through and they all tumbled over one another just in time to look back and see the Cat eye looking in from outside.
Mick’s father said “I’ve told you not to be greedy, now go to your room, maybe now you have learned your lesson.”
Mick had learned his lesson. He knew he was a very lucky not to be eaten by the Cat and now he had pains in this tummy for eating too much.
He cried himself to sleep and in the morning his father came and sat on his bed to tell him how much they loved him and explain again the dangers of Cats and being too greedy.

Mick the mouse had lost a few hairs from the end of his tail.
It’s funny because the cat had to spit them out. Mick’s family had only pulled him in in the nick off time. Because he was little he still had a lot to learn.
Cassy the cat was angry, very angry she had missed catching the mouse. She said I will stay by the mouse hole till one comes out. So she waited and waited and waited some more but no mou
