A comical story about family fun in the sun!
Summer has arrived, and the seven little mice are excited to go to the beach. Father makes sure the children are safe in the water. But when the tide comes in ... you'll never guess who comes to the rescue!
"The pen-and-ink and watercolor illustrations perfectly complement the story. The mice are all individualized with gently humorous details and the palette is appropriate for the woodland setting."-School Library Journal reviews Seven Little Mice Go To School
