Dragonfly Books, 1991

A Really, Really Good Book!

+ curiosity, tenacity, and leadership
+ Another Leo Lionni masterpiece

It's amazing how one can forget how really good a child's book can be written, until you read a truly great book. Leo Lionni is a great writer of children's books and this is a great book. You too, could be the mouse who dreams beyond the wall and discovers what is on the other side.
