Published by: Paula Wiseman Books/Simon & Schuster
When a small action creates a snowball effect that disrupts the peace of the animals, the forest and a bear cub restore order once more in this delightfully funny picture book.
Deep in the woods,
a mouse wanders alone.
A mischievous mouse
in a quiet, nothing-to-do forest.
Until…
One small mishap quickly snowballs into a chain of outrageous events, causing the whole forest full of animals to have a very loud day indeed!
Can the animals now find a way to bring calm and quiet back to their home?
Reviews
“The use of onomatopoeia, alliteration, and repetition makes for a lovely read-aloud experience, and the many humorous details in the art… make rereading a treat. At once fresh and familiar, silly and soothing.” — Kirkus ― 1/1/2024
“For audiences that love quiet, and those that loathe it, the joyful resolution following this jolt of antic boisterousness should strike a resounding chord.”
