Mouse battles surprising animal guesses—but could his biggest secret be hiding in plain sight?

What is I am not an elephant about?
Mouse is definitely not an elephant – even though he has flappy ears and a pointy nose! When a gecko, porcupine and marmoset make their guesses, Mouse insists that he might be an owl, a sheep, a yak or a cow instead. With plenty of quick thinking and cheeky persuasion, he tries to prove that appearances can be deceiving and that what matters is what is on the inside. But could Mouse actually be a moose?
