Big Brother Mouse believes it's important to remember traditional culture and values, as well as being open to new ideas and ways of learning. These four stories have been passed on from parent to child for many generations. 'The Elephant and Sparrows' and 'The Three Friends' teach the importance of working together, while the title story shows what happens to mice who trust a cat too much.

The title story in this book is true, I'm afraid. And I'm going to give away the ending right here: if you're a mouse, never trust a cat.
