It was April Fool's Day. Victor, being a mischievous boy, decided to play a trick on his teacher, Miss Williams. He scooped his pet mouse, Snoopy into his pocket and took it to school.

In the middle of a science lesson, Victor let Snoopy loose. The little creature at once scampered to the front of the class. At first, Miss Williams did not notice the mouse. She was writing on the blackboard with her back facing the class. The mouse, however, decided to announce its presence by giving a loud squeak. On hearing the sound, Miss Williams turned around. When she saw the mouse, she screamed at the top of her voice and climbed on her table.

"Who brought this creature here ?" she demanded. However, no one heard her as the class was roaring with laughter. Several students even laughed till tears rolled down their cheeks. Miss Williams was not amused.

"If no one admits to playing this trick, I shall punish the whole class," she declared angrily.

When the class heard this threat, they stopped laughing. Everyone looked at Victor, expecting him to own up. Victor, however, stared at the floor and did not say a word. He was a coward at heart.
