A mouse-catching farce from Roald Dahl Funny Prize winning picture book creator Russell Ayto. Mr and Mrs Homeowner have a mouse in their house, and they want it gone. Mr Bosh – big chief mouse-catcher, and Mr Bumble – assistant mouse-catcher (wearing shoes that squeak like a mouse) arrive on the scene. They try all the old tricks: setting a trap, bringing in a (big!) cat, inviting an elephant round... but the mouse is always one step ahead.

"Ayto's colorful, expressive illustrations perfectly complement this fun tale ... an ideal choice for an early elementary school read-aloud." - School Library Journal

"Stylish, irreverent, unruly fun for all!" - LoveReading4Kids
