Alice Melvin’s award-winning Mouse is off on another mindful adventure in nature.
Join Mouse on his summer vacation by the seaside. Each day brings new excitement, from sandcastles on the beach to ice cream on the promenade, sunbathing on the sand dunes to looking for treasures among the rock pools! Intricate illustrations and interactive flaps reveal many plants and animals young readers can identify, and the atmospheric rhyming text sets the scene for this perfect summer vacation.
When we last saw him, Mouse was journeying along the river to visit a friend who lived by the sea. This summer, he’s come back to wander along the coastal path and discover all the seaside has to offer.
Mouse by the Sea features interactive flaps and gatefolds throughout, which draw the reader’s attention to hidden details and convey the ebb and flow of the tide. As Mouse makes his way along the coast and ventures out on a boat trip, he encounters lots of local wildlife, including seals and dolphins, diving gannets, and nesting puffins. The back of the book features a nature guide packed with fascinating facts about the different habitats and wildlife that Mouse encounters.
Illustrated in colour throughout with 15 flaps and 1 double gatefold
This is the 3rd book in the Mouse's Adventures Series.
