Mickey <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gulliver_Mickey>`__ (1934): Mickey is first seen reading `Gulliver's
Travels <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gulliver%27s_Travels>`__ while the mice orphan children are pretending too be sailors. After ruining their game Mickey tries to make it up to them by retelling the Liliput sequences of Gulliver's Travels pretending it was a real event that happened to him by portraying the role of Gulliver. The story ends with
Mickey saving the town from a giant spider (`Pete <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pete_%28Disney%29>`__). However
after telling the story, one of the children dangles a fake spider attached to a fishing rod which scares Mickey out of his witts.
