De muis, of De gestoorde nachtrust een berijmde geschiedenis in twaalf tafereelen voor jong en oud

In a gently rhymed tale that feels both timeless and playful, everyday worries are set aside for a tiny, mischievous visitor. The narrator declares a refusal to discuss wars, politics or lofty histories, choosing instead to focus on the simplest disturbance—a mouse in a bedroom.

We meet the kindly couple Spar and Eva, whose nights have always unfolded in quiet harmony. One sleepless evening a gray mouse scurries onto the bed, prompting a flurry of whispered curses, frantic footfalls, and a clumsy battle with a wooden stick. Their attempts grow more frantic, yet the mouse remains elusive, turning an ordinary night into a humorous chase.

The story’s gentle humor, rhythmic verses and vivid descriptions make it a charming listen for children and adults alike, reminding us how the smallest creatures can create the biggest ripples in a peaceful home. Listeners will enjoy the blend of poetic language and lighthearted misadventure without any dark twists ahead.
