"This accessible chapter book tells the story of Charlie Muffin, a quiet man who works as a taxidermist and mouse breeder. When he tells his friend Merry that it would be impossible to breed a green mouse, she challenges him to try, implying that she'll marry him if he can do it. Charlie tries, succeeds, and marries Merry. Together they care for the famous green mouse, Adam Muffin, and raise a daughter, Cherry Muffin. . . . This offbeat, gently humorous story flows along happily and promises to carry young readers along with it. Another appealing book from the author of Babe: The Gallant Pig and many other animal stories."
--Booklist
"The writing is beautiful. . . . Another lighthearted, gently humorous novel that's filled with information about animals and an understanding of human emotions. When read aloud, the words trip off the tongue."
--School Library Journal
