The Mouse Family Robinson by Dick King-Smith
'If only that horrible cat didn't live here!' When Beaumont Robinson, an inquisitive young mouse, is nearly killed by the cat, his family decide there is only one thing to do. They must emigrate! And so they all set out on a midnight adventure to find a new house. This is a delightful story with a truly engaging young mouse hero, which is just right for new readers of 7+. Ben Cort's illustrations are enormous fun.
