How to Murder a Mouse: A Philosopher's Tale

By Sandra Sherrod

What was the Greater Being thinking when he created mice? That's one of Harvey's Big Questions. Like why did he also create birds of prey and snakes and all those other creatures that eat mice. And then, there's mousetraps and poison. How many ways does he need to kill mice? When a question keeps Harvey awake at night, he climbs to the fifth floor of their little enclave and sits at Sidney's feet. Sidney has been eating pages out of the books left in the library by the Greater Being. Says he reads the words on the page when the print crosses his tongue. Harvey is the Informed Mouse of their little clan. An Informed Mouse that keeps order and finds food. But Sidney, he's a prophet, or so he says. When Harvey has questions concerning life and death situations, he asks Sidney his Big Question. Sidney will push up his beret, take a deep breath and spout an answer. Like: the Greater Being wasn't thinking when he created mice. He had other things on his mind and mice stepped through the crack. What if it's true? What Sidney doesn't know, and Harvey didn't find out until it was almost too late, is asking Big Questions opens doors. Big Doors. Doors so big it's terrifying to walk through. But Harvey wants answers.
