Author: Matthew Cordell
Sick with fever, a boy magically shrinks and aids a mouse family’s important quest. But is it all a dream? Warm, richly detailed illustrations scribbled in multi-colored ballpoint pen.
Our Young Reviewer Say:
It’s special. I love this book. I love this book, Dada, I love it, I love it, I love it. I love this book, I love it! I liked that they didn’t get eaten by the owl. He’s turning into a size a cricket. When he’s an old man, he has the coin. But it wasn’t a long time ago. He’s not a man yet a long time ago. This happened really a long time ago in the book.
