Similar in many ways to Beneath the Earth, the Mouse World exists in secret on the fringes of human society; the difference is scale. This is an entire class of stories built around tiny protagonists operating just out of sight in the human world. These come in a few flavors, but all share some important common elements. In any case, the lives of the little folk draw eerie parallels to the lives of the big-folk. In an urban setting, the characters most often act like rats, even when they aren't actual Talking Animals in the 3- to 6-inch range. They live in Mouse Holes using adapted or cobbled-together materials made from human trash with the odd toys and models thrown in, usually making it Scavenged Punk. If they deal with human opponents directly, expect clever trickery, stealth and the odd Colossus Climb or Gulliver Tie-Down. They may become Dinky Drivers to operate human vehicles. In more rural or wilderness settings, they may live in Mushroom Houses. If humans aren't aware of them in the slightest (as in most cases), it's usually because they either have a strong Weirdness Censor, the tiny species is keeping a complex and clever masquerade, they operate a Mobile-Suit Human or two, or they simply regard talking and/or clothed Funny Animals or tiny humanoids as an Unusually Uninteresting Sight. In some cases one lucky human (usually a child) Speaks Fluent Animal and is the only human character in the story aware of the tiny species. In combination with an Incredible Shrinking Man, you can have a Trapped in Another World plot. Other slightly larger animals such as cats and dogs may also play a role in this world, but expect Animal Jingoism to come into play, along with examples of Cats Are Mean. The trope may have begun with the original Lilliputians, and later Gulliver's time with the Brobdignagian giants, in Gulliver's Travels by Jonathan Swift (although there were a few very small beings in some cultures' version of the Oral Tradition, long before Swift's time). The best-known recent version is probably The Borrowers books and their adaptations to other media. The Mouse World is almost always a Wainscot Society, more or less literally. ("Wainscot" is wooden panelling on interior walls, and small beings might live behind the wainscot in houses; mice often do in the real world.) However, the Mouse World may not feature a fully-developed society. Hence, this is a Sister Trope and often functionally a Subtrope to that one. Not to be confused with the Disney Theme Parks. If you're looking for little people who don't necessarily live in one of these worlds, head over to Lilliputians. Sister trope to Knee-High Perspective. |

A Bug's Life: Interestingly, humans never directly appear, but their existence is obvious through the use of garbage as buildings for the bugs in Bug City and at least a trailer-park with a lantern. Also, a beggar cricket has a tablet that says that a kid pulled his wings off. | |

The Great Mouse Detective (which was based on a series of books by Eve Titus, Basil of Baker Street). Exaggerated in that while set in London, the mouse version of London is almost exactly the same as the human, without Bamboo Technology. They have clockwork, guns, functioning cabarets and (bizarrely) even Queen Mousetoria, who's an identical mouse version of Queen Victoria. Also, living directly under Sherlock Holmes' house is Basil, a mouse who's an amazingly clear if Disney-fied Expy of Holmes himself. | |

The forest in Epic (2013) is inhabited by tiny people—essentially wingless fairies—who are currently engaged in a war between the forces of growth and decay. Some animals are able to talk to them, like a snail and a slug, but most are just giant-sized versions of their real-world counterparts to them—including an actual mouse who's big enough to be a threat. | |

In Redwall, animals live in a medieval sort of world, and they do have tables, ovens, swords, clothing, etc. They don't live in a realistic way, it's very humanlike. However, they do retain characteristics of being animals... moles are good at digging, squirrels are champion climbers, otters are naturals at swimming, some animals are mentioned as being carnivorous (most animals in the series eat only fish and eggs, as far as non-plants go). | |

The Wind in the Willows sort of waffles between this and the typical cartoon-animal approach. Sometimes the small animals seem to be the correct size, but sometimes they interact with scaled-down horses and other such non-anthropomorphic animals that really ought to be a lot bigger | |

Terry Pratchett's Nac Mac Feegle (aka the Pictsies) in Wee Free Men and other Discworld books, finger-sized blue people who live in human burial mounds. His earlier children's books, The Carpet People (fantasy creatures living on a carpet and to whom a carpet hair is as large as a tree) and The Bromeliad Trilogy (Truckers, Diggers, and Wings, whose characters are 6-inches tall creatures living ten time faster than humans) are a more obvious example. | |

Kabu no Isaki by Hitoshi Ashinano. The story is set in a world where everything except humans is 10 times larger (in linear size), but apparently the Earth surface gravity force is not 10 times stronger. Result: Japan appears huge and sparsely populated, humans are piloting what looks like toy airplanes, landing on fuki (butterbur) leaves and such. There is also an old one-shot called Kuma-bachi no Koto ("something about carpenter-bees") by Ashinano in which small humanoid(s) and standard-size people co-exist. |

The Deptford Mice books by Robin Jarvis feature a community of mice living in an old empty house in the London borough of Deptford. They are divided into two sections, the Skirtings and the Landings, with the inhabitants of the latter being seen as uppity by Skirtings-dwellers. Beneath them in the sewers, the villainous rats have their own society governed by their living God of Evil, Jupiter. There are also squirrels and bats, who are mostly weird mystics. The Prequel Thomas is largely set in Asia and features a loris, a jerboa, and a mongoose. | |

The Butterfly Ball and the Grasshopper's Feast: It's not always clear, but it seems as if the animal world is meant to be in the edges of ours, Peter Rabbit style. There are two sticking points, one being Sir Maximus Mouse having "a secret flat" in the Cheddar Bank, but even that can be interpreted as an over-selling of living in the wainscotting. Slightly harder to explain is the animal-sized steam train in "The Rodents' Express" and "Punchinello", especially the suggestion in the former that the Princess of Wales has also travelled on it, implying a World of Funny Animals. | |

Most of Pinky and the Brain is set in a "normal" human world; however, the episode "The Third Mouse" (a parody of The Third Man) is set inexplicably in a 1940's Mouse World. The episode "When Mice Ruled the Earth" has Pinky and the Brain trying to create one of these, and succeeding at the end. Unfortunately, all the mice look and act like Pinky. |

The Toy Story films are set in a world where children's toys are sentient and live their own lives when humans (who they see as almost godlike figures) aren't looking. Their adventures are complicated by the fact that they are miniature versions of humans and animals; getting dumped into a cardboard box and left to be forgotten in the attic may as well be a Fate Worse than Death for them. | |

One of the older humans who used to live in the house had built a dollhouse for the borrowers to live in, and in the end they leave down a creek in a boat made from a teapot. | |

Small World (Tabitha King novel): Played with in surprising ways. For example, one of the reasons for Leyna's prolonged confusion — and why she believes herself to be insane rather than catching on sooner — is that as a tiny person, her perception is forcibly twisted: the weave of a bedsheet is as large as a web of closely woven ropes to her, and goes on for miles in all directions; landmarks like walls and ceilings are literally too far away for her to focus on them, giving the impression that she is simply standing in a White Void Room whenever she is out of the Doll's White House. Also played with more mundanely by the miniature enthusiasts. Hey, did you know you can make a doll's table lamp from a coffee creamer container? You will after you've done reading this! | |

The novel Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH, or The Film of the Book The Secret of NIMH. The movie took it far further, though; the mice have tables, chairs, a bed, separate rooms and curtains in the doorways of their home, whereas in the original it was just a two-opening cinderblock. The novel (and the later sequels) did state that the Rats of NIMH had made their tunnels surprisingly human-like (and it only got more so, after they moved to the valley, including a statue of one of the rats who died near the end of the first book). Racso even has some of the younger rats figuring out how to make candy. And Mrs. Frisby was married to one of the mice from NIMH. So her husband might have been partial to human-like amenities, and Mrs. Frisby humoured him. |

Bug Fables is set in the continent of Bugaria, which is populated entirely by arthropods. Bugaria is also set in the human house's backyard, given the presence of many human objects like giant soda cans, cardboard boxes, and etc. Furthermore, Lost Sands were shown to be set in an ordinary sandbox, while the Rubber Prison is made of car tire, and Metal Island is made of a hubcap. The humans themselves do not appear, and it's implied that they either went extinct or otherwise went elsewhere after the mysterious cataclysm, the same one that gave bugs sapience. | |

The movie version of Ernest et Célestine (but not the books that inspired it) has a full-fledged mouse society living in sewers beneath a nation of bears. In French, the tooth fairy is called "the little mouse" and so the mice, because they must replace their oft-worn incisors, judge each others' worth by how proficient they are at collecting bears' teeth for mouse use. | |

Gnomes is a wonderfully detailed illustration on how six-inch humanoids might survive in the wild. For the most part they live In Harmony with Nature but they do occasionally scavenge things from human beings and their domestic animals. There's also depictions of acorns used as cups and pinecone scales as roof tiles and of how gnomes keep field mice as pets and crickets as watchdogs, and there's a wonderful illustration of a gnome in his garden with flowers and nettles towering over him. | |

In Bugdom you take control of a rolly polly, travelling across the lands rescuing captured insects. Grass and other plants seem as tall as trees, anthills and beehives are spacious caverns, and giant human feet can crush you on the fourth level. | |

Pikmin from Olimar's point of view, although only on the Distant Planet, where grasses are as tall as trees, trees tower out of sight, many areas closely resemble wrecked human bathrooms and playrooms and the like, and most of the "treasures" he collects are things like bottlecaps, dentures and seashells that seem gigantic next to him. His home world is just right for the dominant race's size. | |

The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap has the Minish (also known as the Picori), a race of tiny beings that live in mouse holes, mushrooms, and the occasional vase or boot. Link can shrink himself down to their size to visit them with the help of Ezlo (a transformed Minish himself). The game implies that they are the reason that Link can obtain helpful items by cutting grass or throwing rocks throughout the games. | |

The Doll People features dolls that take an oath upon being made which allows them to keep their sapience. Oddly, Barbie dolls are not alive, although fictional brands of dolls are. Barbies could be alive. For some reason, they mostly choose not to take the oath. |

In Antz insects exist in a human-like society, though signs of humans do exist. An unnamed and unseen boy serves as a minor antagonist, and Insectopia is made out of trash. The end-reveal, which isn't much of a reveal thanks to the poster, shows that Z's whole adventure happened in Central Park making it more specific than usual about the human world. | |

Breaking Cat News does this with the Robber Mice, who appear (especially right at first) as a Wainscot Society within the cats' world. That's right, Georgia Dunn created a Mouse World and a Cat World. (Snakes appear around St. Patrick's Daynote Dunn never liked the story of St. Patrick driving the snakes out of Ireland, so she has the cats and mice welcome them to the party, and a civilization of Raccoons is occasionally shown.) | |

Played quite realistically in Ratatouille, where the most Bamboo Technology utilized by the rats is their musical instruments. Other than that, they're quadruped rodents. Remy, who engages in more humanlike behavior like walking on his hind legs and reading, is considered an oddity by the others. The rat-adapted kitchen of the bistro at the end of the film expands upon its Mouse World elements, with tiny ladders granting Remy's colony-mates access to high shelves and kitchen appliances arranged so teams of rats can manipulate them. Also used, of course, in VÃdeo Brinquedo's Mockbuster of this movie, Ratatoing. |

Hollow Knight is a possible example of this. All the characters are either bugs, arachnids, worms, mollusks, or some other invertebrate, and although we never see any giant objects or animals to compare them to, there's nothing like trees, rivers, or mountains to compare them to either. The wilderness areas are made up of moss and fungus instead of trees, and all wielded weapons are nails except for Hornet's sewing needle and Zote's wooden weapon. There's a definite possibility that the characters are supposed to be the size of actual bugs. | |
