Description

|
|
|
In a story for readers up to 7 that could have come straight from an old-fashioned children's ballet, Benjamin the mouse watches the beautiful Marguerite dance along the edge of an ancient cathedral fountain, too shy to befriend her. Then another mouse appears, with shiny black fur, a cape, and a moustache. He is Randolph, the villain of the piece (did you guess?), and though he flatters Marguerite and dances with her, it soon becomes clear he wants the fountain to himself, and he banishes her. How can little Benjamin hope to defeat this bully? Petra Brown illustrates the tale in finely detailed watercolors.
