Mouse's Poem. Mouse is very busy writing his new poem on his typewriter. He's far too absorbed to join nature-loving Moose outside. So Moose busies himself fishing, walking and tidying up the fallen apples in Mouse's garden. Moose thinks Mouse would like a nice lunch to help him with his work and he leaves it on Mouse's doorstep. But he leaves the bag with the fallen apples on the doorstep, too...The Camping Trip. Moose is delighted that Mouse has finally agreed to go on a camping trip with him. Mouse is looking worried though, "What if there are wolves?" Moose is having a great time, but Mouse thinks camping is chilly, damp and hard work. It gets dark and Moose can't find the way, so he lets Mouse take control and read the map. Mouse leads them to a place to pitch their tent. If it wasn't so dark you'd almost think it looked like Mouse's back garden...
