- Abstract
- en_US This is a 24-page pamphlet consistent with and perhaps derived from a good short animated film available for watching on the internet. Right-hand pages get a couplet the last word of which rhymes with the last word of the left-hand page's couplet. The animation of the mouse concentrates on nose and ears. Carvalho does several careful things with the traditional story. The mouse does not run over the sleeping lion. "If you let me go, I will one day repay you." The resulting laugh is emphasized. The lion does not release him because the mouse made him laugh. He simply sends him home saying that he does not know how the mouse could help him. The lion promptly goes for a walk and is lifted up in a net. In this version, the mouse says "Because you were kind to me, I have now repaid you." "A kindness that is given, is a future kindness returned." Carvalho does not have the mouse riding on the lion's mane.
