If you give a mouse a cookie, he&`&s going to ask for a glass of milk.
When you give him the milk, he&`&ll probably ask you for a straw.
When he&`&s finished, he&`&ll ask for a napkin.
Then he&`&ll want to look in a mirror to make sure he doesn&`&t have a milk mustache.
When he looks into the mirror, he might notice his hair needs a trim.
So he&`&ll probably ask for a pair of nail scissors.
When he&`&s finished giving himself a trim, he&`&ll want a broom to sweep up.
He&`&ll start sweeping.
He might get carried away and sweep every room in the house.
He may even end up washing the floors as well!
When he&`&s done, he&`&ll probably want to take a nap.
You&`&ll have to fix up a little box for him with a blanket and a pillow.
He&`&ll crawl in, make himself comfortable and fluff the pillow a few times.
He&`&ll probably ask you to read him a story.
So you&`&ll read to him from one of your books, and he&`&ll ask to see the pictures.
When he looks at the pictures, he&`&ll get so excited he&`&ll want to draw one of his own.
He&`&ll ask for paper and crayons.
He&`&ll draw a picture.
When the picture is finished, he&`&ll want to sign his name with a pen.
Then he&`&ll want to hang his picture on your refrigerator.
Which means he&`&ll need scotch tape.
He&`&ll hang up his drawing and stand back to look at it.
Looking at the refrigerator will remind him that he&`&s thirsty.
So...he&`&ll ask for a glass of milk.
And chances are if he asks for a glass of milk, he&`&s going to want a cookie to go with it.
