Mouse-sized art appears on Swedish street (BBC)
A miniature street scene has been created at pavement level in a Swedish city, apparently to cater to the local mouse population.
The scene is built into the wall of a building on Bergsgatan, a major thoroughfare in Malmo, and is raising a smile from passers-by who are eagle-eyed enough to notice it, the Sydsvenskan news website reports.
On one side is a tiny French shop called Noix de Vie - Nuts of Life - complete with a window display of pistachios, almonds and hazelnuts to tempt would-be customers inside. Posters outside advertise local rodent-related events, including the release of a horror film called Night of the Were-rat.
Next door, there's the red-and-white-striped awning of the equally petite Italian restaurant Il Topolino - the Italian name for Mickey Mouse. Anyone small enough to dine there could watch the world go by from a table and chairs outside. On the menu: cheese and crackers.
