A humble little mouse encountered a herd of elephants while scavenging for food.
She curiously followed the herd of elephant into the forest and discovered a party
filled with lots of delicious food. In an attempt to feed her hungry family, she helped
herself to the food from the feast but was caught by one of the elephants. The
elephant took pity on the mouse and decided offer her more food to bring home for
her family.
Weeks later, the mouse encountered the same elephant again. This time, the
elephant was trapped in a net set by poachers. The mouse remembered the
elephant’s generosity and decided to repay his kindness by saving him.
The Elephant and The Mouse is a contemporary adaption of an ancient Indian fable
which was inspired by the unlikely friendship between the Hindu elephant god
Ganesha and his vahana – the mouse. Using object/rod puppets, this heart-warming
tale teaches children how a simple act of kindness can go a long way.
The Little Players (TLP) is the outreach wing of The Finger Players, dedicated to creating active learning experiences through the art of puppetry.
