The Five Nice Mice by Chisato Tashio

From chapters.ca:
Five nice mice are sitting in the garden one night when Baba hears faint music in the distance. What can this wonderful sound be? They decide to go and find out, and they discover a fabulous frog concert. But mice aren't allowed in. So they return home and decide to form an orchestra of their own; no frogs allowed. They practise and practise, and finally put on a great show. When all the cheers die down, the mice are shocked to see an audience full of frogs. It turns out that you can't keep good music to yourself after all. Here is a funny and imaginative story, illustrated by remarkably cute art.

Originally in Japanese.
