I Am the Mountain Mouse

(3) K-3 Over the course of four individual stories, an irascible white mouse leads three other mice into dangerous though exciting situations of predator vs. prey. The leader's cheerful, unworried obstinacy fits well with the book's episodic nature; he never learns from past mistakes. Skillfully illustrated in gouache and pencil and told in comics format, the droll characters communicate through speech bubbles and delightfully depicted expressions.
