Bob Graham beautifully captures a world vision in one solitary moment. From the multiple award-winning author-illustrator of How to Heal a Broken Wing and A Bus Called Heaven , comes a powerful and poignant celebration of the small moments in life – moments in which we sense the greatest significance, moments when we can see the big picture. At 9.59 on Thursday morning, Jodie draws a duck. Just as she is about to add one final silver button to the duck's boots, her little brother takes his first step. At this exact same moment, a man buys bread, a soldier leaves home, a baby is being born... Here is a book, a story, a philosophy so simply told and yet – in true and inimitable Bob Graham style – so rich with emotion and meaning. From his glorious urban skyscapes to the tender portrayal of a falling feather or the tying of a shoelace or a dog's joy in scratching his back, Bob lets us in on a world view conveyed with humanity, compassion and affection.

McNeeley the Mouse lives under the stairs in the Turley's house. All is well, except that the Turleys like to eat a lot and don't like to exercise. Each time they go up or down the stairs, the boards creak more than the last time, and McNeeley is afraid that the roof of his own little house will cave in one day. So, McNeeley and his cousins must devise a plan to save his house, and maybe even save the Turleys at the same time!
