Step inside the mice’s hidden world in this interactive page-turner from internationally bestselling author-illustrator Mariajo Ilustrajo. In a playful twist on the classic 'unexpected guest' story, humans become the surprise visitors in a tale told by mice!
A family of mice living happily under the floorboards get the shock of the lives when they discover some very unusual houseguests – humans!
At first, the mice are wary, but curiosity soon takes over. They investigate the strange objects and delicious food their guests have brought with them and decide maybe humans aren’t so bad after all . . . until one mouse gets trapped in a jar.
