Endearing Rodent Epic

Even though the story is written as a children's novel, readers of any age will find plenty to love with the three main characters. In the vein of such enjoyable trios as the Three Stooges and Alvin and the Chipmunks, the mice heros (or hoodlums) of this story each flash their personalities in conversation and proceed through the adventurous plotline with their own specific style. The writing is smooth, the moused-sized inventions humorous and the story fluid enough that you might just have to sit down and read it all at once. But don't worry about the time. It is, after all, just a children's book.

A special book

If you have a son or daughter, Do the world a favor and read them this book. This is a special book, My mom use to read it to me and it showed me many things about friend ship. However please have a tissue ready when you read Chp 14. I still have it and I plan to read it to my kids when god blesses me with them.

A Great childrens book!

This was the first book I read over 20 years ago, and I never forgot it. That is how much I enjoyed it, I would definitly recommend it.

Great Read-Aloud Fun!

My mom used to read this book to me, and I loved it. She is a teacher (6th grade) and also works with a daycare (K-5th grades). She has read this book to many classes of children over the years, and it is consistently enjoyed. The book is full of humor, and is very easy to imagine happening in your mind. That's what makes it so great. Plus it's good quality reading--and very appropriate for children.
