A baby mouse trembles inside a bottle, too scared to emerge—until a sudden, startling reflection of a kitten’s face through the glass sends him into a fresh panic. Written and illustrated by Walt Kelly, this whimsical 1950 short story captures a moment of quiet suspense with playful visual trickery. The cover by Walt Kelly perfectly mirrors the tale’s clever, self-contained twist.
