The Gruffalo is a children’s book that tells a story of a mouse taking a walk in the woods. The mouse uses clever tricks to evade danger. On his way the mouse encounters several dangerous animals (a fox, an owl and a snake). Each of these animals, clearly intending to eat the mouse, invites him back to their home for a meal. This cunning little mouse declines each offer. To dissuade further advances, he tells each animal that he plans to dine with his friend, a “Gruffalo”, a monstrous creature who favourite food happens to be the relevant animal. Later on, in the story, the mouse is shocked to encounter a real Gruffalo.
This Gruffalo has now wised up to this cunning little mouse and has hidden his sweet stash up in this tree, away from the mouse. If you are as short as the mouse you might need a little boost. If you are as tall as the Gruffalo it is within arms reach.
Are you as cunning as the mouse? Can you find the Gruffalo’s stash?
