In this twist on an old tale, it is not the leopard who wants to change its spots, it's a lonely grey mouse who craves color and excitement in her life. To attract a friend, she assumes various guises: green to charm a frog, zippy stripes to appeal to a zebra, polka dots to lure a ladybug. When all the creatures laugh at her, she feels bluer than blue. Diving into some water to avoid a swarm of bees, the soggy mouse hears the squeaky little voice of an eager new playmate -- another grey mouse.
