Tiny's Big Adventure — John Lawrence

With the help of finely detailed engravings by John Lawrence that leap from the page, Martin Waddell scampers off on a new adventure -- from a wee mouse's point of view.

Two little mice jumped out
of their hole in the barn.
"I want to go to the cornfield,"
Tiny said.

Tiny Mouse has never been to the cornfield before, so he's thrilled that his sister will take him. It's the perfect place to play games like climb-the-tractor and sit-on-the-seat, or hide-and-seek-mouse. But the cornfield is also a place full of strange new sights that make Tiny quiver and shiver and call out for his sister, who helps him feel braver. With boldly animated illustrations and a sympathetic story, Tiny's Big Adventure captures all the excitement -- and trepidation -- of a first-time experience.
