After listening to the news, little mouse asked Mother Mouse, “Mama? What is arrogance? Mother Mouse, replied, “Arrogance is when you forget that everyone is your kin. And you think you are better than someone else. Or that you are always right. Arrogance happens when you forget to listen to others.” Little mouse thought about this. And then asked, “Mama? How do you fix arrogance? Especially when it is inside of you?” Mother Mouse replied, “Humble Pie my dear! We can each have a piece of humble pie. I will bake one for us right now. Would you like to help?”
