"Help! Help! A mouse!" There was a scream. Then a crash. Cups, saucers, and spoons were flying in all directions. Alexander ran for his hole as fast as his little legs would carry him. All Alexander wanted was a few crumbs and yet every time they saw him they would scream for help or chase him with a broom. Unhappy that he is not welcome in the house as is his friend the wind-up mouse, real mouse Alexander sets out to find the Magic Lizard who can remedy the situation.
Cute, but... let's maybe not teach kids to breach consent for personal gain, maybe?
