Can I Come Too?

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Nicola Bayley. In slightly stiff prose, an adventure-seeking mouse sets off to find "the biggest creature in the world." She encounters creatures of increasing size (from a frog and bird to a tiger and polar bear), all of whom ask to come along. Finally the new friends witness "a wonderful thing": a breaching whale. Soft, highly detailed colored-pencil illustrations portray this peaceable kingdom.
