King Cheese

Once, there lived a mouse named King Cheese who ruled the land. He visited each mouse house to make sure all the mice were well. On his trips, he forgot to pack food. So he got very hungry. “Oh, I wish that all I touched would turn to cheese!” he said.
A yellow fairy appeared and said, “Your wish has been granted!” King Cheese reached for his sword. It turned into cheese. He knocked on a door. The door turned to cheese. A mouse bit a hole in the door and stepped out. “Your majesty?” The king shook the mouse’s hand. The mouse turned to cheese, too. “Help! Help!” cried the king. But everything he touched turned to cheese. He sat down and cried big, cheesy tears. “I’m sorry! I will always pack food before a trip!” he said.
At once, cheese turned back into houses and grass and mice. From that day on, King Cheese always carried a little bag of cheese on his trips. He never got hungry again.
