Illustrated by
Amy Walrod.
Imagine being a mouse who can't eat cheese. After Dolores breaks out in itchy spots and starts to sneeze, Doctor Ricotta confirms the worst: she's allergic. Walrod's illustrations of the three mouseketeer pals keep things lively with dialogue balloons and occasional comic-strip panels, while Howe's story sensibly avoids a fromage-y ending. Kids with food allergies will admire Dolores's take-charge attitude.
