Finally, the solution to Aesop's age-old question:
Who will bell the cats?

Mouse and his friend, Brown Bat, are determined to get out
of the basement and into the banquet hall to join
the fun and frolicking there.
But escape won't be easy with the cats blocking
their efforts . . .

It will take many attempts and a surprising
solution for Mouse and Bat to succeed.
