King Mouse

Fagan, Cary

£7.99

King Mouse begins when a mouse comes upon a tiny crown in the grass. The mouse puts the crown on his head, and when a bear subsequently comes upon him and asks if he’s king, the mouse responds ‘Yes’. This diminutive monarch settles into his new role very comfortably, until a snake comes upon a crown and claims she is queen. This inspired collaboration between an award-winning author and debut picture book illustrator Dena Seiferling is quietly profound in its simplicity and has the feeling of a modern classic.

Description

King Mouse finds his authority in question when his subjects find crowns of their own…

A mouse comes upon a tiny crown in the grass. The mouse puts the crown on his head, and when a bear walks by and asks if he’s king, the mouse responds “Yes.” The tiny monarch settles into his new role very comfortably … until, that is, a snake comes upon a crown and claims she is queen. The mouse is not amused! Especially when, one by one, the other animals find crowns and claim they are kings, too. But when the bear can’t find a crown, King Mouse make a most surprising decision…

A sweet, thoughtful, funny tale of friendship, sharing and play.
