Once upon a time there was a camp in the woods. The camp was full of happy people, but there was one little boy who was different. He was deaf. He liked playing by himself in the woods. He could not hear the birds singing and the breeze rustling the leaves.
One day, he was playing in the woods when he suddenly heard a sound. It was a loud crack and it made him jump. When he looked around, he saw the ground had split in two! He was so scared, but then he noticed a little mouse had come out of the crack. The mouse was walking away, so the little boy followed it. 
The mouse hopped right into a camp fire and split into two. It was so funny! The little boy was amazed, he had never seen anything like it before. 
The little boy watched in amazement as the two mice ran off in different directions. He was so excited to have seen this strange thing happen in the woods. He smiled and went back to his camp, happy to have been able to experience something so new and wonderful.
