Little Gray Mouse lives on a farm among a group of field mice that are fearful of the cats on the property. He dangerously attempts to find peace and bring it to the cats, but learns from a wise, old mouse that unfortunately he is looking for the wrong kind of piece. The story ends when Little Gray Mouse happily discovers that he has possessed the meaning of peace all along. The surface theme of the story shows how people can be confused when they don't understand the meaning of a word. A more subtle theme deals with prejudice.
