About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is feeling a little intimidated by 'scary' movies or needs a high energy outlet for their silliness. It is the perfect choice for a kid who loves larger than life action but prefers giggles over real frights. The story follows the brave mice of Mousopolis as they face off against a giant, breath smelling canine invader in a clever parody of classic monster cinema. While the book plays with themes of bravery and teamwork, its primary goal is to empower children by making the 'monster' something relatable and funny: a household pet. The noir inspired narration adds a layer of sophisticated humor that parents will enjoy reading aloud, while the vibrant photo collage art keeps young readers engaged. It is a fantastic tool for showing children how to use humor to shrink their fears down to size.
