Mickey Mouse!!

Today, May 15, marks the anniversary of first silent cartoon movie “Plane crazy” that Mickey Mouse featured in 1928. Wow! Mickey has been entertaining kids for 84 years now!

Isn’t Mickey so lovable, helpful and funny. Don’t you wish all real mice were like Mickey?? He is the only mouse who is not grey but peach and black. That is because he is a work of someone’s imagination. Do you know who?

Mickey Mouse was created by Walt Disney along with his two friends. Walt Disney got the inspiration for Mickey Mouse from his old pet mouse he used to have on his farm.

Mickey’s body was made out of circles in order to make the character simple to animate.You can make that out by looking at Mickey’s big round ears!!

And each of Mickey’s hands has only three fingers and a thumb ;)
He is mostly seen on adventures with his friends Minnie mouse, Donald duck, Daisy duck and his dog Pluto.

Look at this funny video where Mickey is having fun with friends:
