1. Dad gave Tom a gift of five white mice. He had to keep them in a big box.

2. The box had wire on it, to keep the mice safe from old Tib, the cat.

3. When the mice saw Tib, they tried to hide from her. They did not like her.

4. Tom had to drive her off each time she came to the box. The mice had a fine time in the box.

5. Tom's mate, Dave, came to see the mice slide on a wire line, which Tom put in the box for them.

6. Have you seen white mice?

7. They are such dear wee pets. They run from side to side of the box.

8. Tom feeds them and keeps the box clean.

9. Run, mice, run! Run and slide on your line. Let Tom and Dave see you.
