Submitted by Allana from Leonardtown!Library Mouse: A Friend’s Tale by Daniel Kirk is a delightful fantasy for listeners and readers alike! When Tom realizes that he has no partner to help with his “Writers and Illustrators Club” project, Mrs. Forrester tells him she will help out. Tom doesn’t really become inspired to either write or illustrate for his project, until he finds a tiny notebook left behind by a secret writer named Sam. When he shows this to Mrs. Forrester, she isn’t surprised. Someone named Sam has been leaving little story books around the library for children to read. Is it a coincidence that all the stories are about mice? Tom wants to find out who Sam really is, and possibly meet him, and as the tale unfolds we discover that one young boy learns a valuable lesson about team work and friendship, and another shy fellow realizes that he also can have a friend, and that maybe he doesn’t have to be so anonymous.
