Many people (in the reviews) seemed to claim this book "sexist." If you have heard this, please let it be known that I for one thought it rather women empowering... and not sexist in the least. Both men and women had their strengths and weaknesses. And in the end, both genders won out as the two main characters made their own informed decisions. - 2016

What joy fills my heart when somebody mentions this book. All of these books define different moments in my life, and realizations of some sort. This book was my realization of childhood. I was in a land of my own for a bit there... and this book speaks to that. Light, yet heavy it follows the adventures of a lovely little mouse with ears that make him a social outcast. Yet, he is full of hope, light, and love. This book is simply delightful, and if you missed out on it during the first 12 years of life, I would highly recommend visiting it now.
