(4) K-3 A mouse emerges from a hole in the ground and steals a frog's flower. This escalates into full-fledged war between frogs and mice until destruction is nearly total. In the original wordless version, Popov's message was clear, if simplistic; the addition of text, while unobtrusive, seems somewhat unnecessary. Double-page spreads progress from open spaces and cool green tones to cluttered, hectic, dark pages.
