Mouse brothers Louie and Dan are an odd couple when they set out to live on their own: Louie is timid and neat, and Dan is courageous but a slob. When Dan nearly becomes cat food, however, Louie's quick thinking saves the day in this satisfying new edition. Finely detailed, realistic drawings evoke a domestic mouse-size coziness and contain humorous details for the observant reader.
