獅子在森林裡安靜地睡覺，一隻老鼠沿著他的身體爬了上去，在獅子頭頂上玩得特別開心，當獅子醒來後發生了什麼事情？它會和老鼠打架嗎？從下面的故事中找找答案吧。
The ray of the warm sunlight told us that it was spring. A lion was sleeping peacefully in the forest.
溫暖的陽光沐浴著大地，春天來了。一隻獅子在森林裡安靜地睡覺。
While the lion was fast asleep, a mouse went on top of the lion. The bold mouse played happily on top of the lion. "Yuppie! This is really fun." The mouse ran around thumping and stomping here and there.
當獅子快睡著的時候，一隻老鼠跑到了獅子的頭頂。 大膽的老鼠在獅子頂上玩得很開心。 「Yuppie！太好玩了！」 老鼠跑來跑去，這裡看看，那裡瞧瞧。
The lion was not able to sleep with all the racket. The lion knew that there was someone on top of him. So, the lion made a surprise attack and rolled on the ground.
獅子睡得並不安穩，它知道自己身上有些什麼。因此，它突然地猛擊地面。
And the mouse fell over. When the lion saw the mouse he was relieved and said, "Whew! It was only a mouse."
老鼠摔倒了。 當獅子看到老鼠時，他鬆了一口氣說：「哇！原來只是一隻老鼠。」
However, far away a fox had seen the scene. The fox laughed mockingly to the lion and said, "You're as big as a mountain and you're afraid of the mouse. You're a coward!" The fox kept making fun of the Lion.
遠處的一隻狐狸正好看到這一幕。 狐狸嘲笑獅子，對它說，「你像山一樣大，卻害怕老鼠。你是個懦夫！」
Finally the lion spoke, "I wasn't afraid of the mouse. I was only shocked to find a bold enough animal not afraid to run around on top of a lion." When the fox heard this he quietly left.
面對狐狸的嘲笑，獅子說：「我並不害怕老鼠。我只是驚訝於有動物不害怕我，反而在我的身上跑著玩。」狐狸聽到這裡，明白了獅子並不是真的膽小，灰溜溜地跑開了。
