That's a remarkable question.
Ganesha is a symbolisation of power and triumph. You can understand that by its size and that elephant head. The mouse is a symbolisation of the meek. The picture of Ganesha with mouse rolling around symbolises how you have to behave in your life. Ganesha is also known for his appetite. Yet he is allowing the mouse to eat his laddoos. With his power and might he could have whacked of the mouse with a small blow of his trunk. But he allows the meek, hungry little mouse to have his fill. This is a message for us. We should always care for the meek and the needy. Be humble towards the people disregarding their lower grades.
Look what the picture is trying to explain you. Cravers want to solve the mystery of the half smile of Mona Lisa. But they would learn a lot if they try to solve the mystery of such pictures.
Good posting... keep it up.

The vehicle of Ganesha is a mouse. At a first glance it seems strange that the lord of wisdom has been granted a humble obsequious mouse quite incapable of lifting the bulging belly and massive head that he possesses. But it implies that wisdom is an attribute of ugly conglomeration of factors and further that the wise do not find anything in the world disproportionate or ugly.
As rats generally succeed in gnawing their way through every obstruction, the rat symbolizes this god's ability to destroy every obstacle. Being an elephant he passes through the thickest of wild growth in a forest, uproots and tears to smithereens the thickest trees hindering his path and fells out whatever comes in his way. While drilling holes like a mouse he can also slip through the narrowest of spaces and thickest of the walls. Moreover, the mouse is deemed to be the master of inside everything. The all-pervading Atman (soul) is the mouse that lives in the hole called Intellect, within the heart of every being. It hides itself behind the inscrutable shape of illusion.

In my opinion it symbolises live and let live philosophy. Also, Ganesh is so sensible and magnanimous that a piece of laddu can not satisfy an elephant where as for a mouse it is more than enough.

Ganesh travels on the mouse, that's what my husband has told me. He is from Sri Lanka.

Lord Ganesha and mouse both are good eaters
It symbolises high power of grasping
the contradiction of volume and weight of little car rear mouse , and big great Ganesha as being carried , is the myth of making impossible possible

Mouse symbolises a weakling carrying a hefty personality.
To show, that weak are not really weak. A little service of theirs is a great service.
A Vehicle is important not the type of the vehicle.
