Illustrated by
Henry Cole.
Mouse is mad (for some reason). The other animals are better at hopping, stomping, screaming, and rolling around in anger--making Mouse even madder. In the end, Mouse learns that being himself is the best antidote to a bad mood. Mouse's exaggeratedly furious faces amidst nature's calm are the highlight of this story about individuality and self-expression.
