A Bell for the CatMany mice lived in a big house. A cat lived there too.
The cat was quiet. The mice did not hear her come.
The mice met in the night. "We must do something!"
A young mouse said, "Put a bell on the cat!"
"We will hear it ring. Then we can run and hide!"
The mice cheered. What a good plan!
An old mouse said, "But who will put it on?"
No one said a word.
"Not me," said one. "I am too slow."
"Not me," said one. "I am too small."
Not one mouse would do it.
The cat just yawned and went back to sleep.
