The Flying Mouse

សង្ខេបរឿង

To the song "I Would Like to Be a Bird", a young mouse fashions wings from a pair of leaves, to the great amusement of his brothers when his attempts to use them fail. When the butterfly he rescues from a hungry spider proves to be a beautiful blue fairy, he wishes for wings and begins flying around. But his bat-like appearance doesn't fit in with either the birds or the other mice, and he finds himself friendless; even the bats make fun of him. Then the beautiful blue fairy reappears and removes the mouse's wings, telling him "Be yourself and life will smile on you". The young mouse runs all the way home and happily reunites with his mother and three brothers who dance around him.
