The Fox in the Library

Fox goes to the library looking for mice ... not books!  "This isn't the forest; this is the library," says Mouse.  "You can only borrow things here."

 So begins the hilarity, as Mouse offers fox a book so that he will get new ideas - besides wanting to eat mice.  The new book works!  Now Fox is thinking about eating chickens.  But when the chicken-eating, fix-hunting farmer walks into the library, Fox and Chicken think fast and come up with a surprising solution that just might save them both.
