Ned Mouse Breaks Away

Ned Mouse has been sent to jail. His crime was writing "The government is unfair to mice!" in his spinach. But Ned can't stand the tiny cell, terrible food, and unstylish striped jumpsuits. So he begins to try to escape. He tries digging a tunnel, building a getaway plane, and finally taking a leap down the bathtub drain hole. Each time he's thwarted. The years pass, and Ned is near despair when he gets a letter from his long-lost friend Mort, who tempts him with visions of the sunrise by the sea. Filled with determination, he thinks of a new way to leave his old life behind. But can it work? Ned Mouse Breaks Away beautifully captures one mouse's cleverness and endurance in this charming tale written by a master of children's literature and featuring beautiful pen-and-wash illustrations.Wynne-Jones, Tim is the author of 'Ned Mouse Breaks Away' with ISBN 9780888994745 and ISBN 0888994745.
