Excerpt from the Book:
Finn knew something was wrong as soon as he opened the door to his cottage. Something, or someone, had made a mess of the breakfast he’d placed on the table before taking his morning walk.
A small pitcher was toppled over. Cream soaked his newspaper, The Dublin Reporter.
A large bite was missing from his raisin scone. Crumbs trailed across the crisp white tablecloth.
“Who’s here?” He peeked in the kitchen. Berries he picked to make jam rolled across the counter like marbles. Oatmeal poured onto the floor from an overturned tin.
“A fine mess you’ve made, whoever you are!”
My Thoughts:
What a nice children's tale that was! I'm sure younger children would find this very interesting and entertaining. "Out, Mouse!" is a story about Professor Dunderbutt, who has mice in his house. And how can he get rid of the mice? He writes them polite letters and suggests to them where they should go. But nothing is as easy as it first seems.
The narration is a bit different, but it suits the story, and I liked it.
An excellent audiobook for children that will make them laugh.
About the Author:
Valerie L. Egar started writing stories in fifth grade with a series she called "The Unearthly Cry," a supernatural scream that saved people and animals from harm.
Her first children's book, Oh No! Reindeer Flu! debuted in 2019 and was a finalist in the 2020 Wishing Shelf Awards.
She lives in Maine with her partner, Bo, and their fur companions -- a rescued husky. Phoenix, and a feisty foundling Maine Coon cat, Lucca Lu. When she isn't writing, she enjoys quilting, embroidery, and hunting for treasures at local auctions.
