Listen to the Narration:
Mouse loved climbing, but she wasn’t nearly as good at it as Squirrel.
“You’re the best climber in the forest,” she told Squirrel one day. “You must know everything there is to know about it.”
“Goodness, no!” Squirrel said. “In fact, you could probably teach me a thing or two about climbing.”
“What could you learn from someone like me?” Mouse asked.
“Probably lots,” said Squirrel. “Everyone knows something you don’t! Besides, if you go around thinking you know everything already, then you’ll never learn a thing.”
