:techie-studyinggray: :techie-studyinggray: :techie-studyinggray: I'm excited to read this. In a long while do I get the urgency to read a book. The journey of "another mouse" seems rather interesting to me. Also his parents named him another mouse, I mean he is a mouse but he deserved a better name.
And his journey!!!!!

This sounds like a nice book, engaging and full of adventures. I also see a hidden meaning in this: those predators he encounters and those obstacles he comes across on his way home are like real world in which you experience various difficult situations and meets different people with their own motives and intentions and you have to learn to deal with them. Congratulations on becoming BOTD!

Yay! Today's botd is a work of fiction, and it seems to be quite the whimsical one. Mouse Trax seems like it will be a joy-giving read, and I think I'll like the curious and adventurous mouse that is our protagonist. I hope I get to read it someday.

This is a feel-good storyline, the tale of "Another Mouse", and its quest for knowledge, and all the encounters with the arrogant owl, conning fox, and the wise cow, remind me of those beautiful bedtime stories that make you wonder off into the world of imagination.

Seems delightful and very interesting for younger children and even though I am quite a bit older than the intended audience for this book, I still would like to read it and see if it will be such a great gift as it sounds in description! Thanks for your recommendation and congrats on BOTD!

A book that will entertain children and adults alike. The mixture of poetry and prose makes for an enjoyable read. Children will enjoy the rhyming and, of course, the adventures of the mouse. Adults will enjoy the wordplay and satire.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading your review of Mouse Trax. The way you highlighted the blend of prose and poetry really caught my attention. It’s fascinating to see how the book uses a unique narrative style to appeal to both children and adults. The whimsical character encounters you mentioned, like the arrogant owl and the mischievous chatterbox, sound delightful and add a lot of charm to the story. I also appreciate your insight into how the book balances humor with subtle satire. It seems like Mouse Trax offers a rich and engaging reading experience that goes beyond just a children’s adventure. Your review certainly makes me eager to explore the world of Another Mouse and his epic journey!

Thank you for your great review. I'm glad you enjoyed it. I also enjoy children's books and was amazed at how in-depth it was written, but with words that children would enjoy. The unique names, the adventures, meeting the many different animals with different backgrounds and feelings. I agree I think everyone will enjoy it. I have added it to my list of books to read.
