The Mouse Minibus Mishap

Barnaby Quill

A mouse named Pip steers a thimble-sized bus through tall grass highways, picking up a hitchhiking snail and arguing with a squirrel over tolls. Barnaby Quill's early chapter book suits confident five- to eight-year-olds who like small creatures in big landscapes. Sadie Bracken reads with a cozy, knowing warmth, giving each animal passenger a distinct voice without ever rushing the quiet nighttime stretches. Good for families seeking gentle adventure before bed.
