This is a rhyming tale about a cunning mouse. When a series of predators invite the mouse for dinner (and who will be served for dinner) the mouse pretends he is on his way to meet the big scary Gruffalo. Hearing the mouse describe the monster, the animals run for their lives until the mouse finds himself face to face with ...the Gruffalo!
