Arthur the Rat
Once there was a young rat named Arthur, who could never make up his mind. Whenever his friends asked him if he would like to go out with them, he would only answer, “I don’t know.” He wouldn’t say “yes” or “no” either. He would always shirk making a choice.
His aunt Helen said to him, “Now look here. No one is going to care for you if you carry on like this. You have no more mind than a blade of grass.”
One rainy day, the rats heard a great noise in the loft. The pine rafters were all rotten, so that the barn was rather unsafe. At last the joists gave way and fell to the ground. The walls shook and all the rats’ hair stood on end with fear and horror. “This won’t do,” said the captain. “I’ll send out scouts to search for a new home.”
