(1) 4-6 Illustrated by Kelly Murphy. In this rollicking comedy of manners, the social-climbing Cranstons (human) take an ocean voyage to Europe hoping to snag a husband for daughter Olive. Observant, careful Helena and her quite-a-bit-less-prudent younger siblings (mice) go, too. Peck's droll take on human and mouse society is exquisite, and Murphy's dandy and detailed pencil illustrations add just the right air of royalty.
