About this book
In Willie Mouse, Alta Tabor spins a whimsical animal adventure about a small mouse with a very big idea: the moon is made of green cheese, and he's determined to find it. Young Willie packs a lantern, a crust of bread and a wedge of cheese, then sets off on a travel-filled journey that leads him through clover fields, into the woods, and to the doors (and holes) of a host of curious animal neighbors.
This vintage, illustrated tale blends fiction, adventure and travel with gentle humor and timeless themes of curiosity, imagination, and community. Along the way Willie meets Mr. Woodmouse, Miss Jenny Wren, Mr. Squirrel and Mrs. Mole—each encounter offering a new perspective and a small lesson without ever losing the story’s playful charm. Told in a turn-of-the-century storytelling style, the audiobook captures the era’s cozy pacing and lyrical simplicity while appealing to modern listeners.
Perfect for families, teachers, and young readers or teens who love animal-led travel stories, Willie Mouse is an ideal listen for bedtime, classroom storytime, or anyone craving a short, charming tale about wonder and the joy of exploration.
