"MacDonald's retelling of this Limba tale is engineered for storytime success."—School Library Journal starred review
Mabela may be the smallest mouse in the village, but her father has taught her to be clever. And this cleverness comes in handy when the cat comes, inviting everyone to join the secret Cat Society. The mice line up, with Mabela at the front and the Cat at the back. They march into the forest, singing the secret Cat song and shouting FO FENG! Only clever Mabela realizes the Cat is up to no good!
Product Description: An African folktale about a mouse who pays close attention to her surroundings and avoids being tricked by the cat.
