Maurice Minor's Incredible Adventure: A Children's Book for Grown-Ups

by Martin Forey

More a mouse of words than of actions, Maurice's sweet tooth one day finds him caught in a humane trap and released into the British countryside, lost and miles from home. A tale of his subsequent adventures and the charming woodland characters that he encounters along the way, will Maurice find his way home and, along with it, the acceptance from his militaristic father, The Major, that he so desperately craves? A modern day Wind in the Willows for a new generation, Maurice's story is one of journey and discovery which, with its underlying references and humour will delight both children and adults alike.
