Butikken fikk besøk av mus, men musene var ganske redde for Ginger.

Ginger pleide å si “Pickles, kan du snakke med de musene? Jeg får alltid vann i munnen”.

“I cannot bear,” sa Ginger “å se dem trippe ut av døra med de små godteposene sine. Trip, tripp tripp.”

The shop was also patronized by mice—only the mice were rather afraid of Ginger.

Ginger usually requested Pickles to serve them, because he said it made his mouth water.

“I cannot bear,” said he, “to see them going out at the door carrying their little parcels.”
