What is The King, the Mice and the Cheese about?

A king's palace is overrun by mice who are drawn to his beloved cheese. To solve the problem, he introduces cats to chase the mice away. However, the cats become a nuisance, leading him to bring in dogs to chase the cats. This cycle continues with various animals, each causing new issues, until the king realises that cooperation and sharing might be the best solution.
