The Lion And The Mouse

A mouse is seated comfortably in a Lion's mane in a new version of the unlikely friendship of a lion and a mouse. Both look happy and comfortable in this mouse/lion portrait.

The Lion and the Mouse is a classic Aesop's fable that teaches the moral lesson that "even the smallest can be of help to the strongest".

The story goes that one day a small mouse accidentally ran across a sleeping lion. The lion, angered by the mouse's disturbance, caught the mouse with its paw and was about to eat it when the mouse begged for mercy and promised to one day repay the lion's kindness. The lion, amused by the idea of a tiny mouse ever being able to help him, let the mouse go.

Sometime later, the lion was caught in a hunter's trap and couldn't free himself. The mouse, hearing the lion's cries for help, rushed to the scene and began to gnaw away at the ropes of the trap until the lion was finally freed. The lion realized that the mouse had kept its promise and that even the smallest creature could be of help to the strongest.

The moral of the story is that no one should underestimate the power or worth of others, no matter how small or insignificant they may seem. It also teaches the value of kindness, as the lion's initial act of mercy towards the mouse ultimately led to the mouse saving his life.
