Why the chicken and the mouse couldn't talk before??


The mouse sudently start to speak to the kid like nothing... so she could speak, why she didn't do that earlier? Or the girl turn out in a chicken

The mouse girl said she was too afraid to speak because a talking mouse would freak most people out.

Yeah, you see how Brunos parents reacts, even when he talks to them and they should be desperate enough to accept anything hinting to their kid. So it makes sense that people in that world are overreacting to such weird things. You can also assume that she tried to talk to people (her parents?) tried to talk and learned to better not talk.
