Allan R. Gall
Paperback
(Two Harbors Press, Sept. 1, 2011)
Manny is the smallest of six mice born in his parents' nest in the woodpile. His mother worries that he might not make it. But life has much in store for him. Manny dreams of being Zeus, Lord of Lightning, Titan of Thunder, with magical powers he can use to make life safe for all mice. But Manny is just an ordinary mouse. Or is he? Enter the woodpile near Farmer Frank's house and meet Manny and his family and friends. Manny's world is cozy and loving, but also filled with the dangers of farm cats, dogs with bad breath, foxes, and - worst of all - hawks, who can snatch you from your family in an instant. But as Manny discovers, friendships can come from unlikely places. Follow Manny through danger, survival, love, and loss as his adventures and dreams take him far from his home, only to return to the warmth of family and friends (old and new). You, too, may believe in the tales Of Mouse And Magic.
