A moving allegory of conflict and destruction Hundreds of flowers grow in the field, but the one that mouse wants is precisely the flower frog holds in her hand, and mouse does not hesitate to grab it. The frog calls her friends to the rescue, and mouse follows suit. The tension escalates. Each attack is followed by a counter-attack, until the lush field is in ruins, and only a dying flower and a broken umbrella remain. War, why?
