Description
A group of costumed mice are frolicking in the pumpkin patch when they hear the swish, swish of a creeping cat. Off they run, but they don't just turn tail. Using a light and a mask, they throw a shadow that frightens away the cat for good. Simple sentences and lots of onomatopoeia make the text as appealing as the energetic watercolor-and-pen artwork. A fun read for Halloween story hours.
