THE PIANO MOUSE STORY
Once upon a time, in a city far away, the Pianomouse was born. His parents, Nicholas and Justina lived in a small but comfortable mouse hole. This mouse hole just so happened to be in the grand home of the great pianist, Frederic Chopin. There was music everywhere! Nicholas and Justina were both musicians. His mother played the piano and his father played the violin. Their music was beautiful, but when the great Chopin would play late at night, nothing compared to it's beauty. When Pianomouse was little, as little as a mouse can be, he remembers his mother and father practicing their music. As he grew older, his parents wanted him to study music. He of course, wanted to learn to play the piano.
Pianomouse pursued his career in music performing throughout all of the great concert halls of Europe. He loved to play the music of Chopin. As his fame grew, so did his fortune. Pianomouse loved his music and loved performing! AND MORE!
