The Mousetrap

The document is a script that tells the story of a mouse who warns other farm animals - a chicken, lamb, and cow - about a mousetrap he has seen in a house. None of the other animals see the mousetrap as a threat to them. That night, the mousetrap catches a snake instead of the mouse. The snake then bites the woman of the house, who falls ill. Various animals are then hunted by the man to make food for the sick woman, following the advice of the doctor. By the end, the mouse has learned that when one animal has a problem, it could end up affecting all the others on the farm.
