Abstract

en_US This version of LM with strong, simple yellow and black illustrations tells the tale in a quite different form. The lion lies down to sleep on the mouse's nest. The mouse decides to tickle the lion to wake him up and get him off of his nest. He runs up and down the lion's leg repeatedly. The lion changes his mind about killing the mouse when the latter explains the reason for waking him up. The lion immediately goes for a walk and is thinking about the mouse's silly promise to help when he wanders into a net. He cries for help, and the mouse keeps biting the net until there is a hole. The lion apologizes for saying that the mouse was silly.
