Description
Classic storytelling pairs with exquisite artwork in this tale of a very small mouse on a large adventure to find the biggest creature in the world. “Stunning art, paired with a simple poetic text, pulls readers along as they wonder which animal they will meet next.” ― School Library Journal A very small mouse sets out to find something special―the biggest creature in the world. Along her journey, she meets a menagerie of animals who want to join her in her quest, including a frog, a badger, and a tiger. She visits lakes, rivers, woods, and even climbs a mountain and stops by a zoo. And when she arrives at the ocean, will she finally find the biggest animal of all? From the world-renowned team of author Brian Patten and illustrator Nicola Bayley, this gentle story is a celebration of the world’s wide variety of living creatures. While the poetic text and cumulative tale treatment pull readers along, the gorgeous colored pencil art will have little ones lost in the wonders of the natural world.
