Uncle Wunkle and
Miggle Mouse
Written by Jill Eggleton
Illustrated by Ian Forss
One day, Mrs. Moggle said,
“Uncle Wunkle is coming to stay.
You will have to keep everything tidy.
No mucky-yucky bathroom.
No mucky-yucky bedrooms.
And,” said Mrs. Moggle,
“Miggle Mouse will have to stay in her cage.
Uncle Wunkle doesn’t like mice.”

Archie and Annie got brooms and brushes
and they scrubbed
and they rubbed,
they scrubbed
and they rubbed
until there wasn’t a spot or a dot
anywhere, and everything was as clean as
the cups in the cabinet.
“Nothing mucky-yucky for Uncle Wunkle,”
said Mrs. Moggle.
And she scrubbed Archie and Annie
and Miggle Mouse, too, just in case!

When Uncle Wunkle came, he looked in his bedroom.
“Good,” he said.
“Everything tidy, everything clean.”
He looked in the bathroom.
“Good,” he said.
“Everything tidy, everything clean.”
Then Uncle Wunkle saw Miggle’s cage.
“That’s a mouse cage,” he said.
“Mice are mucky-yucky.
Is there a mouse in there?”
Uncle Wunkle looked in the cage,
but he couldn’t see Miggle Mouse.

Where is
Miggle Mouse?

That night, when everyone was asleep,
Miggle Mouse squeezed out of the cage
and went creep, creep, creeping
into Uncle Wunkle’s room.
She saw a big, lumpy bump
in the middle of the bed.
It was Uncle Wunkle.
Miggle Mouse jumped right on top of him
and went sliding down the big, lumpy bump.

But Uncle Wunkle turned over
and Miggle Mouse was squashed.

Song
If a mucky-yucky mouse is in the house,
in the house,
in the house,
if a mucky-yucky mouse is in the house,
catch it in a snap-snap trap.
A snap-snap trap,
a snap-snap trap,
catch it in a snap-snap trap!
A snap-snap trap,
a snap-snap trap,
catch it in a snap-snap trap!
(repeat)
SNAP!

Uncle Wunkle and Miggle Mouse
Jill Eggleton
Uncle Wunkle was coming to stay with
Archie and Annie. “Miggle Mouse will have
to stay in her cage,” said Mrs. Moggle.
“Uncle Wunkle doesn’t like mice.”
But that night Miggle Mouse squeezed out
of her cage and into Uncle Wunkle’s room.
“There is a mouse in this house!” shouted
Uncle Wunkle. “Tomorrow I will catch it
in a snap-snap trap!”
Oh, no! Look out, Miggle Mouse...
