A Most Mysterious Mouse

(4) K-3 Translated by Antony Shugaar. Illustrated by Lisa D'Andrea. A cat believes that thinking about mice ("The one who gardened. / The one who lived in a pipe," etc.) is his duty--"If I don't think about them, who will?" This pleasantly strange story reads most like an adult-geared parable about letting go of inner demons, but young readers can appreciate the refined illustrations showing a multiplicity of anthropomorphized rodents.
