00:00In a forest lived a rather rickety mouse, he was so afraid of the fox, the wolf and
00:16even himself for that matter, that if the wind blew and a branch cracked he looked around
00:24for a hole he could hide in.
00:28Because of this, all the little animals made fun of him.
00:34How scared is he?
00:38You're even scared of the wind.
00:41You're so scared.
00:47One day the mouse got his act together and went over to see the king of the jungle, the
00:52lion.
00:54The lion had just finished having his lunch, he was taking a nap in front of the cave.
01:01The mouse's friends were all curious as to what the mouse had planned.
01:06The mouse started to climb up the lion's tail.
01:13He got up on the lion's back, with a very confident look on his face he posed to his
01:19friends.
01:21Although he was very scared, he was doing everything in his hand not to make it obvious.
01:27Right at that moment the lion woke up, and as he shook his fur the mouse fell off.
01:36The mouse and the lion came eye to eye.
01:43All the other animals were worried.
01:51Oh no!
01:52The lion will swallow the mouse!
01:55What nerve!
01:56What courage!
01:57What are you doing on my back?
02:01King of the jungle, please don't eat me.
02:09I'm the most scared and the most vulnerable of them all.
02:15My life passes by shaking with fear.
02:20Even leaf falls off of the tree.
02:23I'm scared, I'm fed up with this, I want to get rid of this fear.
02:29You're the king of the jungle, with just one big roar the animals fear you.
02:36Would you consider taking me to your custody?
02:41The lion listened to the mouse in silence.
02:45The mouse was wondering what his reply was going to be.
02:55And why should I help you?
02:58Give me one good reason as to why I shouldn't eat you.
03:03Your help will be returned, I promise.
03:07Maybe one day I will help you.
03:10As soon as the mouse finished what he had to say, the lion roared in such a way.
03:17How can such a tiny mouse as yourself be of any help to me?
03:24But seeing the tiny mouse shaking in front of him, the lion decided not to eat him.
03:31Thank God I am full, now get out of my sight.
03:36The mouse ran and got away from there.
03:39Watching all that was happening from afar, the friends of the mouse were really surprised.
03:45Some time had passed by, the lion got hungry and started wandering around in the forest.
03:51But he could not notice the hunter's trap and got caught.
03:55He was hung in the air in a big net.
04:01He tried to break free from the net, but he could not do it.
04:06He was the king of the forest, so if he could yell for help, he would be humiliated.
04:12And all the hunters would hear him and come to get him faster.
04:16Being out of options, he began to wait.
04:22Meanwhile, the other animals living in the forest noticed the lion.
04:28But nobody could dare get close to him.
04:36When he was passing by, little mouse saw the lion and he decided to help him.
04:42He went directly next to him.
04:45He started to climb the lion's long tail and when he reached the net, he began to chew on it.
04:52At that moment, the bunny came running next to them.
04:56Hey buddy, hurry up, the hunters are coming.
04:59The other animals who were gathered around suddenly started to run around when they heard the word, hunter.
05:07But the mouse kept on chewing with persistence.
05:12In the end, the net was torn apart and the lion fell down and got away.
05:18Come on, jump on my back, let's get out of here.
05:21The mouse jumped on the lion's back and they got away from there.
05:28All breathless, the lion arrived in front of his cave.
05:32He kneeled down and the mouse jumped off.
05:37When you told me that one day you might be able to help me, I underestimated you.
05:43I thought you were a tiny mouse with no use at all.
05:48But you saved my life.
05:53It's my pleasure, my king.
05:55You don't have to be afraid of me anymore.
05:58In fact, you do not need to fear anything because you're a very courageous mouse.
06:04If I am the king of the jungle, from now on you are my courageous prince.
06:14Lion and the mouse began to laugh.
06:25All the animals watching all that was happening from afar came out and applauded the courageous mouse.
06:31The lion and the mouse became best friends and the forest lived in peace forever.
06:40Once upon a time, there lived an old couple in an old small shack next to a forest.
06:45They were living a happy and peaceful life.
06:47Their only regret was not having a child of their own.
06:51One day, when the old lady was about to give birth,
06:55their only regret was not having a child of their own.
06:59One day, when the old lady was making cookie dough in the kitchen,
07:03her husband came in.
07:06Darling, what are you cooking today?
07:09Oh, my darling, I'm baking a gingerbread man today.
07:16The old lady kneaded the dough and cut a gingerbread man shape.
07:20After putting it in the oven, she sat down and started to wait for the gingerbread man to bake.
07:28When she could smell the delicious cookie all around the air in the kitchen,
07:32she put on her oven gloves and took the gingerbread man out.
07:38Now it was time to decorate it.
07:42She made eyes out of raisins and a cute nose using candy.
07:47And then she used some cream to make his hair and clothes.
07:52And lastly, she used cherries to make some buttons for him.
07:58She had a look at her masterpiece and said,
08:01My gingerbread man looks beautiful, but I feel like something is missing.
08:08The old lady looked at him again and
08:11Oh, his mouth! I forgot to make his mouth.
08:16She drew a mouth on the gingerbread man's face with the cream.
08:21Oh, yes, now you are complete, my gingerbread man.
08:26At that moment, something unexpected happened.
08:29Thank you!
08:31But, but, how can it be you are talking?
08:35Gingerbread man suddenly stood up and started running.
08:38Yeah, and I can also run!
08:43The gingerbread man jumped from the kitchen bench to the chair,
08:46then to the ground and started running fast to the kitchen door to the garden.
08:52Come back! Come back!
08:56The old lady yelled.
08:58The gingerbread man began talking whilst he was running.
09:02Yeah, run, run, as fast as you can, but nobody can catch me
09:06because I'm the gingerbread man.
09:09The old lady got out to the garden and started running after the gingerbread man.
09:14The man looked out the window and saw his wife running and yelled.
09:18Hey, where are you running?
09:21The old lady answered to her husband whilst running.
09:24My gingerbread man ran away. I'm trying to catch him.
09:32The old man was speechless.
09:34The old lady ran, but the gingerbread man was so fast that it was impossible to catch him.
09:39After a short while, the gingerbread man came across a ranch.
09:44A grazing cow noticed him.
09:47Oh, what a nice cookie! I should catch and eat him.
09:52The cow also began to run after the gingerbread man.
09:56Wait! Don't run! I'm gonna eat ya!
09:59Yeah, run, run, as fast as you can.
10:02An old lady is also trying to catch me, but nobody can because I'm the gingerbread man.
10:08The old lady and the cow were running after the gingerbread man.
10:13And at this time, a pig noticed the gingerbread man.
10:19A gingerbread man! True to my taste buds! Wait and I will catch you!
10:25The gingerbread man answered the pig whilst he was running.
10:29Yeah, run, run, as fast as you can.
10:32An old lady and a cow are also trying to catch me, but nobody can because I'm the gingerbread man.
10:39While they were running, the gingerbread man in front, the old lady, cow and the pig behind him,
10:45a chicken noticed the gingerbread man while looking for some food.
10:49Quack, quack, quack, quack, quack!
10:52That has to be my lunch!
10:53That has to be my lunch!
10:55So the chicken tagged along.
10:57Run as much as you want, gingerbread man! I'm gonna catch you!
11:01Quack, quack, quack!
11:03Yeah, run, run, as fast as you can.
11:05An old lady, a cow and a pig could not catch me.
11:10Neither can you. Nobody can because I'm the gingerbread man.
11:15The gingerbread man in front, the old lady, cow, the pig and the chicken,
11:20they all continued to run.
11:23But the gingerbread man was getting more and more further ahead from the others.
11:28The gingerbread man was so happy and very proud of himself.
11:32I'm the brightest and the fastest gingerbread man in the world!
11:36Yes, that's me! Nobody can catch me because I'm the gingerbread man!
11:43When he looked ahead, soon the gingerbread man saw that he was coming across a river.
11:48And he stopped because he knew that water could make him melt away.
11:54Oh no! What now?
11:59The old lady, cow, pig and the chicken were close now.
12:04Right at that moment, a shifty fox appeared from behind a tree.
12:09I know how to swim. If you want, I can help you.
12:12The gingerbread man thought about it.
12:15What if you eat me?
12:16You don't have to worry. I don't want to eat you. I just want to help you get across.
12:22The gingerbread man trusted the shifty fox and jumped on his tail, holding on as tight as he could.
12:28The fox jumped in the river and began to swim.
12:32Meanwhile, the old lady, cow, pig and the chicken came to the edge of the river
12:38and saw the gingerbread man crossing the river on the back of a fox.
12:41Helplessly, they watched them go, knowing they could not catch him anymore.
12:47The river began to get deeper and the water started to rise.
12:51Hey fox, keep your tail up. I almost got wet.
12:55Up on my back, it's safer.
12:58The gingerbread man hopped on the fox's back.
13:02They swam for a while, but as the water got deeper, the fox's back began to sink in the water.
13:08I'm afraid that you'll get wet.
13:11Why don't you jump on my head, where it's a bit higher?
13:15The gingerbread man climbed up on his head.
13:18The fox continued to pursue his plan and dipped his head down in the water.
13:22The water has risen too much. Why don't you get on my nose? It's higher.
13:28So the gingerbread man got on top of his nose.
13:31Right when they were about to reach the shore, the fox tipped his nose,
13:34flipping the gingerbread man into the air and opened his mouth.
13:37The gingerbread man was going to fall into his mouth and the fox was going to eat him.
13:42But it didn't work.
13:44While the gingerbread man was in the air, a crow flying right above them
13:48caught the gingerbread man with his beak.
13:51The fox just stood there looking with his mouth open.
13:54The gingerbread man waited for the crow to fly a little further and asked,
13:59Do crows eat ginger cookies?
14:02Yeah.
14:04When the crow opened his beak to speak,
14:05the gingerbread man fell down and began to run as fast as he could.
14:11Yeah, run, run as fast as you can, an old lady, a cow, a pig, a chicken,
14:18a fox and a crow also tried to catch me, but nobody can
14:22because I'm the gingerbread man.
14:25The gingerbread man kept on running and did not stop.
14:29If you see a gingerbread man pass you by running,
14:33do not try to catch him,
14:35because he is the gingerbread man and nobody can dare catch him.
