What the tale is about

In a beautiful forest, a little mouse named Cino learns from Hadith Number Sixteen that every good deed is a form of charity. On his way home after playing with Muzi and his friends, Cino falls into a puddle and cannot escape. A passing lion rescues him without expecting anything in return. Weeks later, the lion is caught in a hunter’s net, and Cino returns the kindness by gnawing through it with help from his friends. This gentle story celebrates helping others, sharing, and the lasting value of even the smallest good deed.
