El cascabel del gato

"Mice gathered together discuss how to protect themselves from their worst enemy, the cat, in this retelling of Aesop's fable, part of the "Fables" subset of the "Read it! Readers" series. The mice consider making a trap and getting a dog before a young mouse suggests putting a bell on the cat. Everyone approves of this idea, until an older mouse asks, "¿Cuál de todos le va a poner el cascabel al gato?" (Who will bell the cat?). Met with silence, the older mouse pronounces the moral of the story: "Es más fácil decir que hacer" (Easier said than done). Children may well wonder what the mice will think of next. Digitally created illustrations are limited to showing the well-dressed mice at the gathering. A short paragraph preceding the text introduces fables in general and Aesop's fables in particular, making this a good choice for early readers studying fables and folklore."
