Synopsis
Flora is a mouse who is different from her brothers and sisters. She happily explores the kindergarten classroom, where she and her family live in one of the cupboards, and she even learns to read. Flora wants to move onto the first grade--just like the human children--but her quest for education leads to dangerous adventures. But the risks are worth it, as Flora and her family find out when her ability to read helps them to avoid the exterminator's deadly bait. Flora, the world's most educated mouse, saves her family during a crisis.

Industry Reviews
"It's a fun book, particularly when Flora delivers her mouse's-eye view of humans, with a warm, old-fashioned feel to it."
(11/12/1995)
"The combination of adventure, humor, and familiar school setting turned upside down makes this an enticing literary mousehole to slip into."
(October 1995)
"Written in a warm voice that makes jokes sound like explanations, and with a sense of adventure so infectious that readers will follow the plot wherever it leads, this is a grand piece of entertainment."
(10/15/1995)
