This is a short story for all you Mums and Dads and Grandparents who enjoy reading bedtime stories to your children. You will decide to what age group, my own experience and research tells me that ages from four to seven years will enjoy this book. It is the story of Melvin, a small field mouse who lives in the English countryside. He is very friendly with all the other small animals that live in the vicinity, rabbits, ducks, squirrels, badgers, birds, even fish. Craving adventure; he seeks the help and advice from his older and wiser friends and undertakes a huge adventure for a small mouse, traveling by any method he can find from trains and cars to an airplane, he travels to America and finds a new life, having many adventures on the way.
