Mouse Soup
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mouse Soup is a 1977 picture book by noted illustrator Arnold Lobel. Beginning with the simple sentence "A mouse sat under a tree", the book goes on to tell the story of a mouse who has to trick Weasel from turning Mouse into Mouse Soup. He does that by telling stories about Bees and the Mud, Two Large Stones, The Crickets, and The Thorn Bush, and tells Weasel to put them into his soup. It is then assumed that Mouse got away and Weasel got stung by bees.
In 1992, the book was made into a 26-minute musical stop-motion animated film, directed by John Clark Matthews and starring Buddy Hackett as the voice of Mouse.
The ISBN for Mouse Soup is ISBN 0-06-444041-9.
