This story retells Meeting of the Mice, a well-known Armenian children’s tale by Atabek Khnkoyan. A group of mice gather to find a way to protect themselves from a cat that is constantly hunting them.

The mice come up with a clever idea—to hang a bell around the cat’s neck so they can hear him coming. As the plan takes shape, the story builds toward a moment that challenges the group to think beyond ideas and consider who is willing to act.

The story unfolds through clear dialogue and simple structure, keeping children engaged while letting the meaning emerge naturally through the plot rather than explanation.
