(2) K-3 Stevenson ensures his mouse creation, Hubie, several thrills, a couple of chills, and plenty of fun in this latest adventure. The year is 1937 when Hubie and his family travel to Barabooda Island aboard a giant dirigible. All seems well until Hubie falls out of the ship and onto a deserted island. The surprise ending is perfectly in sync with the comic-book flavor and design of the whole. Tom Hanks, eat your heart out.
