"Wicky-Wacky-Whoa! I'm ready to go - to school!" said Maurice. The little mouse gave himself a bath; he licked his paws and washed his face and his fur was all shiny. Then he brushed his itty-bitty little teeth, combed his whiskers, and cleaned his tail.
Time for School is one of The Adventures of Maurice DeMouse, an amusing story about small animals that attend their first day of school. Their teacher, Miss Missy Mouse has very specific rules for Maurice DeMouse, Bobby the Bunny, Squeaky the Squirrel, Stinky the Skunk, Rosie Racoon and Pokey the Turtle.
"Make sure you take a bath and wash your fur before coming to class; we don't want any mice-lice or other bugs in our classroom. Racoons: If you get hungry, please stay out of the garbage can and wait until lunch before you eat. It's not polite to eat garbage in front of other critters that don't have food. And, please make sure you keep your paws off everyone else's lunch."
Just two of fifteen funny rules for critters that will delight children - and adults!
