Mooty Saves a Life

Jessie Wee

The Adventures of Mooty was first published as a 10-part series of children's stories in 1980, depicting the adventures of a loveable little mouse who endears himself to a community of animals, birds and insects and becomes their hero.

Four decades on, Mooty continues to charm children and adults alike.

Author Jessie's reflections on Mooty Saves a Life: After moving out of Grandma's house, Mooty finds a home outdoors. He makes new animal friends when he uses his long tail to save a baby bird who had fallen into a pond. He becomes a hero and is welcomed into the animal community.

I wrote this story to show children entering different phases of their lives, whether attending a new kindergarten or school, or just playing in the playground, that they can just be themselves and make new friends wherever they go.

© 1980 by Jessie Wee. Published in paper format in Singapore by Marshall Cavendish International Asia, recorded by Storyside 2020.
