Once upon a time, there were two mice who were close friends: a Town Mouse and a Country Mouse. The Town Mouse lived in a bustling city, while the Country Mouse resided in a peaceful rural area.
One day, the Town Mouse went to visit his friend in the countryside. The Country Mouse was delighted to see his friend and welcomed him warmly. He prepared a simple meal for his guest, offering him roots, grains, and berries.
As they dined, the Town Mouse commented on the modesty of the meal. He boasted about the abundance of food and luxuries available in the city. Intrigued by his friend's tales, the Country Mouse decided to visit the Town Mouse in the city.
Upon arrival, the Town Mouse led the Country Mouse to a grand house, where they would feast on the plentiful food stored in the pantry. They indulged in rich cheeses, succulent fruits, and delicate pastries. The Country Mouse was in awe of the lavish spread before him.
However, as they were enjoying their meal, they were suddenly disturbed by the loud noises of the house's occupants. They had to scurry away quickly and hide to avoid being caught by the humans and their terrifying cat.
The two mice spent the night darting from one hiding spot to another, narrowly escaping danger each time. Exhausted and frightened, the Country Mouse decided to return to his peaceful home in the countryside. The simple and quiet life he knew was far more preferable to the constant fear and uncertainty of the city.
Once upon a time, in a lively city filled with bright lights and rolling cars, there lived a Town Mouse. He enjoyed soft cushions, tasty food, and big feasts every day.
Far away, in the peaceful countryside, lived his best friend, the Country Mouse. His life was simple, with fresh air, open fields, and small but good meals.
One day, the Town Mouse visited his friend. The golden sun shone over the fields, and the air smelled of flowers. The Country Mouse welcomed him warmly.
"Welcome, friend! I made a nice meal for you!" he squeaked, laying out grains, roots, and fresh berries.
The Town Mouse took a bite and frowned. "My dear friend, this food is so plain! In the city, we have cheese, cake, and sweet fruits. You must come and see for yourself!"
The Country Mouse's eyes grew wide. "Cheese and cake? That sounds amazing!"
The next day, they hurried to the city. The Country Mouse was amazed by the tall buildings, bright lights, and delicious smells. The Town Mouse led him into a big house where a feast covered the table with cheese, nuts, fruit, and cake.
"Go on! Eat as much as you like!" the Town Mouse said proudly.
The Country Mouse enjoyed the creamiest cheese. But just as he reached for the cake, the door slammed shut with a loud bang. Heavy footsteps stomped across the floor. It was the people who lived there, along with their big, scary cat!
"Quick! Hide!" the Town Mouse whispered.
The mice ran as fast as they could, spending the night hiding behind chairs, under rugs, and behind teacups.
By morning, the Country Mouse was exhausted. He looked at the feast, then at his friend.
"Thank you for the adventure," he said, "but this is no way to live! I would rather have a simple meal and sleep in peace than eat like a king but live in fear."
The Town Mouse sighed. "I guess city life isn’t for everyone."
They said goodbye, and the Country Mouse happily returned to his quiet, safe home.
There is a Town Mouse. He lives in a big city. He has a friend, the Country Mouse. The Country Mouse lives in a quiet place. They are good friends.
One day, the Town Mouse visits the Country Mouse. The Country Mouse is happy. He makes a simple meal. They eat roots, grains, and berries.
The Town Mouse talks about the city. He says there is a lot of food. There are many fancy things. The Country Mouse is curious. He wants to see the city.
The Country Mouse visits the city. The Town Mouse takes him to a big house. They see a lot of food. There is cheese, fruit, and cake. The Country Mouse is surprised.
But then, they hear loud noises. The people and a big cat are in the house. The mice run and hide. They are scared. They hide all night.
The next day, the Country Mouse is tired. He misses his quiet home. He likes to feel safe. He does not want the fancy food. He goes back home. He is happy in his quiet place.

Once upon a time, in two very different corners of the world, lived two mice pals. One was a Town Mouse, all flashy and posh. The other was a Country Mouse, as chill as a cucumber in a field of lettuce.
"Hey, Countryside!" Town Mouse said on a visit to his friend, slicking back his whiskers. "How's life in the slow lane? Ready for some real excitement?"
Country Mouse, rocking back in his straw chair, grinned. "Townie, excitement is in the eye of the beholder. But, you know, I behold some roots and berries here for you!"
They sat down to a meal of the simplest sorts. Town Mouse nibbled, his eyes wide with mock horror. "Darling, this is very... rustic, isn't it? Why, back in town, we've got cheese that'll make you dance, fruits that'll make you sing, and pastries so fine you'd swear they were baked by the queen herself!"
Country Mouse's eyes sparkled with curiosity. "Really? Well, why not show me?"
Off they went to the grand city. Town Mouse led the way, swaggering like a mouse who owned the place. "Welcome to the big leagues, my friend!" he exclaimed, introducing Country Mouse to an extravagant feast.
Country Mouse's jaw dropped. "Well, butter my bread and call me a biscuit! This is something else!"
But just as they were stuffing their cheeks with the finest food, the terrifying sounds of humans and a cat interrupted their feast.
"What's the big idea?" Country Mouse squeaked, alarmed.
Town Mouse, nonchalantly finishing his bite, replied, "Oh, that? Just the usual hustle and bustle. Comes with the territory, you know."
They spent the night zig-zagging, dodging, and diving through the city. Every noise was a scare; every shadow was a threat.
As the dawn broke, Country Mouse looked at his friend and said, "Townie, this has been an adventure, but I think I'd rather have my berries without a side of fear, thank you very much!"
Town Mouse winked, his whiskers twitching with a smile. "Well, Countryside, to each his own. But remember, you're always welcome in the big leagues."
With a chuckle, Country Mouse headed back to his peaceful home, thinking that sometimes, the simple life was the real big league.
And as for Town Mouse? Well, he continued to dine in style, always ready for a bit of excitement, and always with a clever remark or two up his furry sleeve.
In a town and country not so far,
Lived two little mice, who were friends bizarre,
One in the city, with hustle and noise,
The other in the fields, with simple joys.
The Town Mouse with a swish of his coat,
To the country, he went, a trip to devote,
He was welcomed with grains, berries, and cheer,
By his dear Country Mouse, who was glad to have him near.
"Oh dear friend," said Town Mouse with a scoff,
"Your meal is simple, not rich enough!"
And he spoke of the city, with food so divine,
Cheese, pastries, and fruits, all flavors combined.
The Country Mouse, intrigued by this tale,
Went to the town, his courage not frail,
A grand house they entered, a feast they did find,
Rich cheeses, fruits, pastries, a spread to unwind.
But as they nibbled, a noise did arise,
The humans, the cat, the terrified cries,
They ran and they hid, all through the night,
In the city's grand house, filled with constant fright.
The Country Mouse sighed, his face quite forlorn,
"I miss my quiet home, where I was born,
The fields, the peace, away from this scare,
The city's too much, I must return there."
So back to his home, the Country Mouse went,
Content with his life, and the time that he spent,
For sometimes the simple, the pure and the true,
Is better than lavish, as known by these two.
Full of energy, noise, and excitement.
Land with farms, trees, and small houses.
A big meal with lots of food.
Made a small, high-pitched sound.
Feeling surprised and very excited.
Tasting really, really good.
Closed something loudly and suddenly.
Walked heavily, making loud sounds.
Very, very tired.
A fun and exciting experience.
Small, hard seeds from plants.
Small, round fruits that can be eaten.
Wanting to know or learn about something.
Very nice or decorative.
Feeling unexpected wonder or shock.
Loud or unexpected sounds.
Feeling afraid or frightened.
Needing rest because of feeling sleepy.
Not in danger; feeling protected.
Feels sad because away from something loved.
Full of energy, noise, and excitement.
Land with farms, trees, and small houses.
A big meal with lots of food.
Made a small, high-pitched sound.
Feeling surprised and very excited.
Tasting really, really good.
Closed something loudly and suddenly.
Walked heavily, making loud sounds.
Very, very tired.
A fun and exciting experience.
