Rising star Joe Todd-Stanton brings his unique, modern illustration style to an inversion of the classic Aesop Fable of The Lion and the Mouse, as Julian the Mouse learns that sometimes, having a friend over for dinner can be just the right amount of variety in your day.
When the fox tries to sneak into Julian's burrow for a tasty bite of mouse, it finds itself stuck headfirst in Julian's front door! At first alarmed and wary, they soon find themselves having a lovely dinner together, and it's not long before each realizes that they have found in the other a lifelong friend.

Joe Todd-Stanton grew up in Brighton and was taught to draw by his mother, who is also an illustrator. Stanton has been commissioned to work for clients such as Oxford University Press, Usborne Publishing and Aquila magazine. His second picture book, The Secret of Black Rock, won the Waterstones Children's Book Prize for Best Illustrated Book, and he was nominated for a 2018 Eisner for Arthur and the Golden Rope.
"Easily able to become a classic, this gorgeously illustrated book conveys messages about the importance of friendship and taking the time to look at people a little deeper. Animal and story lovers will enjoy this ultimately sweet story of a mouse named Julian and the unexpected development of a friendship with a fox."
—Olivia Farr, YA Books Central staff reviewer
