A Mouse in My House

About the Book

“ A Mouse in My House,” is a rhyming story about an elusive mouse. All the animals think the worst of him, because they don’t know the mouse. They only imagine what the mouse is like, without ever meeting or getting to know the mouse. The anticipation of having a mouse in the house is very disturbing to the animals as each look for the little fellow. In the end, when they finally see the mouse, they decide he’s okay and they all become best friends.
