Providing a playful, surprising twist on the classic "unexpected guest" premise, the narrative here is flipped, making humans the unexpected guests in a tale told by mice! The mice are curious about their guests and set out to investigate. They find weird and wonderful human objects and lots of food, so they decide their guests might not be so bad after all -- until our intrepid mouse narrator finds himself caught in a jar! His friends try to save him but get caught too, and they fear the worst, but they're set free from the jar ... and into a cardboard Mouse Land. The humans aren't so bad after all! But, for the final twist, the mice discover there is one last guest to deal with ... and it's even worse than humans: a CAT!
