Please give me some.” Her mother said, “I have no cheese to give you” “Then I shall go and look for some in the house. “Oh! Don’t go out. There is a trap in the house. You may be caught in it.” But the little mouse was very obstinate. She did not listen to her mother’s advice and went out of the hole. She ran all over the house but did not find any cheese.

At last, she smelt cheese. The smell came from inside a small box. The mouse said in her mind. “This must be the box in which they keep cheese. The box is open. Let me enter in and get cheese. So, she ran inside and began to eat the cheese. Suddenly, there was a click and the trap shut. She ran about to get out but in vain. She was caught in the trap.
