Jamie the house mouse is too sympathetic for his own good. True, hed gotten a generous housemate and a bosom buddy because of it. But lonely Sara misinterprets his friendliness and carries him away to a strange and hostile place. His unconventional friends, a human and a fierce grasshopper mouse, must find a way to rescue him. The odds are stacked against them and there may be more at stake than Jamies safety. For Saras ability to see things that others cannot frightens her mother. Can the quest to save one mouse also heal a human family rift?

Mousenapped weaves elements of natural science, herbalism and mysticism into a delightful, well-paced story about a girl, her mother and aunt, and two mice. The story features pleasantly complex characters both human and animal. The author artfully avoids the expected, both in her characters and in her story line, offering small surprises along the way to keep even adult readers interested.

D. Donovan, Senior Reviewer, Midwest Book Review:

From a child who sees too much and defies the perceptions and anticipations of adults in her world to mice who have a vested interest in preserving their unusual friendship against all odds, Mousenapped is anything but predictable with its vivid story of protagonists who hold special abilities and form special bonds.

. . .

So if it's something different you're looking for in middle school reading - something that incorporates new age philosophy and different perceptions into its story - then Mousenapped is the item of choice. It's highly recommended for its more complex, bigger picture of the world and the beliefs of those who inhabit it whether they be mouse or woman.
