About this title

Synopsis

There was a mouse in our house
I guess it came in from the cold

My mother go hysterical
(And SHE's thiry-six years old!)

In this charming, fun-to-read tale, a young boy must try to get rid of a mouse who has entered the family home.  However, that may not be as easy as he thinks--for this is no ordinary mouse.  In order to avoid her certain demise, the mouse convinces the boy to grant her three wishes--a glass of pop, some cheese, and a chance to tell her story.  And tell it she does...

Sheree Fitch's amusing verse is brought to life by Elizabeth Watts' unforgettable illustrations.  There's a Mouse in My House! has been chosen as one of the best books of the year by the Canadian Children's Book Centre.
