Mouse Tail Moon

Take a playful journey through a mouse’s nighttime world"There’s a sliver of moonlike a tail in the skywith just enough moonlightto make my way by. "The mouse’s night is magical, full of gentle rustlings and protective shadows. A leaf gives temporary shelter from the rain, and the open air calls out for leaping and twirling. It’s a wary time—there are hungry owls about—but with a mouse’s quick eyes on the watch, it’s also a time full of secrets ripe for exploring.In lively poems and luminous illustrations, Joanne Ryder and Maggie Kneen capture a second side of the day, after the sun goes down and the mice get up. Nighttime, dream time, play time—this is the time of the mouse tail moon.
