Synopsis

Jessica Strange doesn't look like her brothers and sisters. She begins to suspect that she is not a mouse and goes on a tour of the farmyard to see if any of the other animals can help her out. Madam Butterfly thinks she must be a cow as she has four legs, but Mrs Cow thinks she is an ant as she is so small. Will she ever find out what she really is?
