One morning a mouse walked down a stony path. It had just rained the night before, so everything was clean and refreshed. He was very thirsty, and looked around for something to drink. By the side of the road, there was a big glass of water! Someone had left an empty glass there, and it had filled up with rainwater. When the mouse tried to take a drink, he found he could not because he was very short and his snout was not very long. He didn't climb inside the glass because he was afraid he would not be able to get back out again. Minutes later, he took a drink from the glass and walked away down the road.

The question is: how did the mouse get a drink of water?

There was no moisture on the grass, the mouse was not strong enough to push the glass over, and all of the rocks around him were not big enough to use as a stool. He didn't eat a mushroom either. [img]tongue.gif[/img]
