This vintage slapstick tale follows a turn of the century family as they descend into a comedic frenzy trying to catch a single tiny mouse. While the parents and even the pets create a whirlwind of destruction, it is young Tess who uses her wits to restore order. The story validates a child's competence and problem solving skills, making it a wonderful confidence builder for little ones who are ready to show what they can do. It is a lighthearted, silly read that celebrates girl power and clever thinking over brute force.
