    A mouse tells various woodland creatures like a fox, owl, and snake that it is going to have a meal with a fearsome creature called a Gruffalo. The animals are scared off by the mouse's description of the Gruffalo. Eventually, the mouse meets the real Gruffalo, but convinces it to leave by saying its favorite food is Gruffalo crumble. Impressed by the mouse's cleverness, the Gruffalo quickly departs.
