Te presentamos este cuento en inglés para que tus hijos aprendan divirtiéndose.

Once upon a time, there was a little mouse who was very vain.

One day, the little mouse was sweeping his little house when suddenly, she saw something shining on the floor… a golden coin. The little mouse picked it up from the floor and started thinking what she will buy with the coin.

“I know, I’ll buy some sweets… oh no, my teeth will ache. Then I’ll buy some cakes… oh no, my tummy will ache. I know, I’ll buy a red lace for my tail".

The little mouse put the coin on her pocket and went to the market. Once in the market, she asked the shopkeeper for a piece of his best red tape. She bought it and went back home.

The following day, when the vain little mouse woke up, she put her lace in the tail and went out onto the balcony of her house. At that moment, a rooster appeared and said to her:

"Little mouse, little mouse, you who are so beautiful, would you marry me?"

And the little mouse answered

“I don’t know, I don’t know. Which noise do you make at night?”

And the rooster said:

“cock-a-doodle-do”.

“Oh no, I won’t marry you because I don’t like the noise that you make”.

The rooster went and a dog appeared.

“Little mouse, little mouse, you who are so beautiful, would you marry me?"

And the little mouse told him:

"I don’t know, I don’t know… which noise do you make at night?”

“Woof, woof”

“Oh no, I won’t marry you because that noise frightens me”.

The dog went out and a pig appeared.

“Little mouse, little mouse, you who are so beautiful, would you marry me?"

And the little mouse said to him

“ I don’t know, I don’t know, which noise do you make at night?”

“ Oink, oink”

“Oh no, I won’t marry you because that noise is very rude”.

The pig went out and a white cat arrived saying to the little mouse.

“Little mouse, little mouse, you who are so beautiful, would you marry me?.

And the little mouse said to him:

"I don’t know, I don’t know, which noise do you make at night?.

And the cat with a sweet and soft voice told her

“Miaow, miaow”.

“Oh, yes I’ll marry you because your voice is very sweet”. So they got married the vain little mouse and the white cat with a suit voice.

The two of them lived happily ever after and that’s the end of the story.
