Mouse Around

About this book

Drops of water fall from the pipe over the mouse nest. A small mouse nestled inside tries to catch a drop but as he reaches out for it--just a little farther--he tumbles from the nest into the back pocket of the plumber who is fixing the leak. The mouse is off on a wonderful chance journey which takes him all around town. In this wordless picture book children will delight in following the mouse from hiding place to hiding place guessing where hell turn up next as he piggybacks his way from bakery box to garbage can moving sneakily from street to store to shopping bag. With rich watercolors Pat Schories captures the bustling life of the town and its people--all of whom are oblivious to the mouse and his big adventure as he makes his way home.
