Synopsis
When Gaston discovers Anatole building a little car as a birthday gift for Paul and Paulette, Anatole makes him promise to keep it a secret. Gaston just can't keep his mouth shut, however: he tells Pamplemousse, and they both drop by to take a look at the car. Again, Anatole makes them promise not to touch a thing, but as soon as he leaves, the two accidentally set off on a wild ride...without the steering wheel! By the time Anatole finds them, they have crashed the car in downtown Paris. The three mice must replace the engine (find a new elastic band) and drive the car back in time for the birthday party, dodging Charlemagne, human children and a ferocious dog! Gaston and Pamplemousse learn the hard way that it is very important to keep your word.

Production notes
Based on Eve Titus' book series of the same name, Anatole is a proud mouse who endeavors to prove to people just how valuable a mouse can be. Anatole's desire to understand humans makes him and his family intrinsically different from any other animal family in books or series today. With his loving wife Doucette and their brood of six charming children, Paul and Paulette, Claude and Claudette and Georges and Georgettes, this adorable family chases adventure through the streets of Paris. Audiences will love their antics and creative way of solving dilemmas. Anatole is as unique in his pride, honour, dignity and ultimate success as they come.
