St. Patrick and the Three Brave Mice

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Herb Leonhard. After a "crafty, clever" snake steals Saint Patrick's bell, observant mouse Tulla follows the snake back to its lair. She then gets her brothers, and together the three mice bravely reclaim the bell so Saint Patrick can finish his job of driving snakes from Ireland. Though the illustrations can be stiff, their shadows and shading add tension to the mice's nighttime rescue effort.
