A Mischief of Mice

The latest funny and educational nature book for children from the bestselling author and illustrator of Tap the Magic Tree.

***

Join the animals and follow the clues in this rollicking, rhyming, nature-inspired whodunit story full of fun collective nouns!

A mischief of mice has gone missing on a blustery fall day. Now, a scurry of squirrels is scared, while a band of coyotes howls nearby. Did an unkindness of ravens do something mean? Could a prickle of porcupines possibly help? Luckily, a sleuth of bears comes along to help solve the mystery.

A humorous illustrated book for children who love The Gruffalo and We’re Going on a Bear Hunt, A Mischief of Mice promises a wildly good time for young readers, with plenty of delightful illustrations and memorable characters.
