An old adage says, "If something seems like it is too good to be true, it probably is." This certainly could apply to Marcus and Marcella, two mice that are downright fed up with forest living. With a cacophony of singing crows, chipping chipmunks and chopping beavers, there is simply too much noise. What's more, the mice are tired of always having to search for food. When one of the chipmunks recommends the quiet farmhouse offering plenty of food, Marcus and Marcella jump at the chance to relocate. What follows shows the pair that maybe the forest wasn't so bad after all. Children will appreciate this beautifully illustrated tale from the Sommer-Time Story series emphasizing tolerance for others.
