The Secret of the Ginger Mice

(3) 4-6 Song of the Winns series. Illustrated by David Francis. When ginger-colored mouse Alistair disappears, two parallel plots are set in motion. Alistair's adventure involves an action-packed trek home. Meanwhile, Alistair's brother and sister set off to find their sibling and are catapulted into an equally complicated quest. As the alternating stories play out (with an unrelenting cliffhanger pace), the historical and political background of this mouseworld sets up this trilogy launcher.
