Illustrated by
Helen Craig.
On their camping trip to the Big Cat Mountains, Angelina the dancing mouse and her cousin Henry get lost in the woods. They brave it out through darkness, a storm, and, by their own estimates, a near brush with Big Cat. While not terribly original, the story has drama, adventure, and a cozy ending. Newcomers and Angelina fans alike will be charmed by Holabird's spunky heroine and Craig's delicate illustrations.
