Who is the bravest? A mouse, a frog, a snail, and a sparrow decide to find out. But as each announces their daring feat--naysayers tease: "You call that being brave?" They soon discover that 'What's fun for one can be a feat for another.' And when the sparrow announces its plan, they all discover that true courage comes in many different forms.
