Freddie doesn't like being a mouse. So, when a sorcerer offers him a magical opportunity, he can't possibly turn it down. This is a beautiful, illustrated children's book from the beloved author Elizabeth Jane Howard.
Emotionally powerful as well as entertaining . . . This elegant edition, embellished with stylish chapter heads, tells the story of discontented Freddie Whitemouse, who lives in a skirting board with his large family and wants to be anything but a mouse
The writing is beautiful throughout, displaying a pleasing gentility and building to a genuinely heart-warming conclusion
