Produktbeschreibung
Long ago, mice frolicked on the banks of the River Thames in London. Carefree owners of their own destiny, they lived extraordinary lives. But along came humans, with their monarchies and their crowns, and their PALACES! The mice had no choice but to move away from their lovely riverside home and find another place to settle. As the centuries passed, the mice forgot their history, resigned to living in squalor and scraps, until one brave mouse speaks up with the courage to take back what was theirs, even if what was once theirs is now Buckingham Palace! Plotting their attack over hot cups of tea, cheese rinds, and biscuit crumbs, the mice must find a way to infiltrate the palace with the intent of pestering the queen and her household, until they triumph and gain back their ancestral home. Join the delegation of brave mice who seek to meet with the queen and find a way where both mice and men can live together at Buckingham Palace.
Autorenporträt
William Barrell was born in London in 1932 and is known for his wit and humor, which likely stem from his cockney upbringing. A survivor of World War II, Barrell and his family moved to America in 1954, where he found his calling as an artist. After living abroad for a time, Barrell settled in Pennsylvania with his wife, Marilyn, where he continues to paint and write. His daughter and son live nearby, as do his two grandchildren who have helped and inspired this book.
