Why Did the Mouse Go to the Moon? John Grden

This wonderful tale is about friends working together to send a "Mouse" to the moon. Told through detailed illustrations its a story of invention, determination, and some sprinkles of reality. The spacecraft is an abandoned toy water rocket, to be commanded by Captain John of MASA (Mouse Academe Space Adventures). We can all learn lessons from these small mice that actually live their "dream." The author of the book leaves real space facts along the path like, "maintaining the atmospheric pressure of the rocket while in space", lending to the reality of their adventure and expanding the knowledge of those who will read this book. Captain John shows perseverance and ingenuity making you think all is possible. Watch other cadets rise to the task ofmaking, monitoring and "mousing" around a bit in all they have to accomplish. Working together they are able to do human things in their fantasy world. A "silent propulsion" to the story is the old myth that "mice like cheese." Find out how much they really do, like cheese.
