Little Mouse has found a big, beautiful, red apple! But selfish as he is, he doesn't want to share it. Getting the apple back to his house in order to have it to himself proves to be quite a challenge. Along the way his friends, who would be happy to share in his bounty, assist Little Mouse-to his dismay. Just as Little Mouse finally reaches the top of the hill and his house, the apple rolls down the other side of the hill - right where Little Mouse's friends are gathered. Little Mouse learns his lesson, and discovers sharing with friends is better than being selfish.
