    About this ebook

    Sophie Mouse wishes she could play in the water at Forget-Me-Not Lake with her friends, but she can’t because she’s a mouse. Or can she? Find out in this third book of The Adventures of Sophie Mouse.

    Sophie Mouse likes being a mouse. So she’s excited that she and her classmates are making presentations for school about life as the type of animal they are. Sophie has already made a list of things she can do—run fast, scurry into small places, and more. But while playing at Forget-Me-Not Lake with her friends Hattie Frog and Owen Snake, Sophie realizes one thing she definitely can’t do: swim!

    Hattie and Owen are having so much fun in the water, and Sophie will never be able to join them. Sophie starts to think that being a mouse isn’t so special, after all. When Sophie’s friends notice her disappointment, can they figure out a way to get her out on the water?

    With easy-to-read language and illustrations on almost every page, the Adventures of Sophie Mouse chapter books are perfect for beginning readers.

    Poppy Green

    Poppy Green can talk to animals! Unfortunately, they never talk back to her. So she started writing in order to imagine what they might say and do when humans aren’t watching. Poppy lives on the edge of the woods in Connecticut, where her backyard is often a playground for all kinds of wildlife: birds, rabbits, squirrels, voles, skunks, deer, and the occasional wild turkey.

      Forget-Me-Not Lake - Poppy Green

      Mouse Life

      Sophie Mouse skipped around the toadstool table. She added a carved-twig spoon to each of the four place settings.

      "Napkin on the left, Winston, she told her little brother as they set the table for dinner. Spoon on the right."

      Okay, Sophie, replied Winston. Wait. Which side is left again?

      Sophie tried to be patient as she reminded him. She took a deep breath. Her nose twitched. Her whiskers quivered with glee. Delicious aromas filled the Mouse family’s house in the hollow of a big oak tree.

      Sophie’s father, George Mouse, was at the stove. He was stirring a big pot of radish soup.

      Sophie’s mother, Lily Mouse, peeked into the oven. She was trying out a new recipe—clover and juniper berry cake.

      Sophie came over to look at the cake too. "We should probably try it before you add it to the bakery menu. She smiled sweetly at her mother. Don’t you think?"

      Lily Mouse owned the only bakery in Pine Needle Grove. She was known for making the most delicious cakes and pastries—often with unexpected ingredients.

      Lily Mouse smiled back at Sophie. Yes, of course, she said. "We will all have a test piece—after dinner!"

      Before long, the soup was ready. George Mouse ladled it into walnut-shell bowls. Then all four mice sat down for Friday night dinner.

      As they slurped their soup, Sophie and Winston had lots to tell about their week at school. Mrs. Wise, their teacher at Silverlake Elementary, had assigned the students a fun project.
