It's time to go mice skating! Albert joins his friends in skating cool shapes into the ice - but will the shapes get the better of Albert? |
“Outside, they saw their friends Leo and Lucy. Leo waved. "We're skating shapes!" "Shapes?" Albert asked. Lucy pointed. "See? The Mousely triplets are making a triangle." "A triangle is perfect for the triplets!" Wanda said. "Each triplet gets to skate one of the triangle's three sides."”
