"Don't worry" said
the little mouse. "I can do it. I will start right away." The mouse began to chew and chew and chew. He chewed for a long time. He did not stop to rest. |
"Oh please hurry!" cried the lion. The mouse told the lion he only had a few more ropes to
chew. Finally the mouse chewed through the last rope.
"You are free" shouted the little mouse.
