Once upon a time, there was a large lion who lived in the jungle. He was very strong and very proud and he considered himself the King on the jungle.

One day the lion was sleeping peacefully when he was woken by something running up and down his back and over his face.

 Whit speed the lion reached out and caught the little mouse.

"Please, please, don't eat me Mr King!" said Monty the mouse.

"If you forgive me this time and let me go, I may be able to do a good turn in the future to repay your kindness!

Larry the lion says: It is the funniest thing I've ever heard!

You’ve made me laugh so much I can’t eat you now. Go on, off you go before I change my mind.”

Not long after Larry was caught in a trap by some hunters. 

The little mouse was nearby and came when he heard the mighty lion’s roar for help.

The mouse gnawed the rope with his sharp teeth and set the lion free.

“I know you didn’t believe me, but I told you I could help you one day” squeaked the little mouse. 

“Thank you my little friend. I won’t forget that lesson,” said the lion.
