About This Book

A curious young mouse, prompted by family tales that the moon is made of green cheese, packs provisions and sets off to find it. Along the way he meets woodland animals who offer differing opinions but cannot show him a path upward, and he falls asleep before his quest progresses. An owl captures him and carries him toward her nest, but a hidden green elf rescues him and guides him home. He returns thoughtful and still hopeful that he may one day reach the moon when he is older.
