Synopsis
Charlie Muffin, a dedicated mouse breeder and inventive taxidermist, has successfully bred mice of every imaginable colour—except green. When the spirited Merry Day challenges him to create a green mouse, Charlie embarks on a determined quest. His innovative efforts not only lead to the birth of Adam, the first green mouse, but also win him the top prize at the Grand Mouse Championship Show and the heart of Merry. Together, they discover that some dreams, once realised, are truly one-of-a-kind.
