    About this ebook

    Sophie Mouse is so excited to help her mother bake treats for Silverlake Forest’s big Maple Festival in the fifth book of The Adventures of Sophie Mouse.

    It’s finally fall in Silverlake Forest, and that means it’s time for the annual Maple Festival! The animals have heard it is going to be the biggest one yet with games, rides and, of course, Lily Mouse’s famous maple-filled bake-stand. Sophie is delighted when her mother asks for her help baking the goodies for the festival. When they get there, Sophie runs off to play with her friends…until she notices that no one has come to her mother’s stand! Can she use some quick thinking and her artistic skills to draw customers in?

    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.

    The Maple Festival - Poppy Green

    Fall Fun

    Sophie Mouse tapped her pencil on her school desk. Her assignment was to write a math word problem. Sophie wondered if Mrs. Wise would like hers.

    Mmmm . . . thought Sophie as she reread the problem. Autumn was a very yummy time of year. It was when her mom made all kinds of maple treats at her bakery in Pine Needle Grove. And every year, Mrs. Mouse sold them at the big Maple Festival. Sophie couldn’t wait for this year’s festival. It was coming up this weekend!

    A cool breeze blew in through the window. It carried a few leaves with it.

    Okay, class! Mrs. Wise called out. Time for recess!

    The whole class jumped up. Sophie joined her friends Hattie Frog and Owen Snake at the door. They headed out to the playground.

    Are you both going to the Maple Festival this weekend? Sophie asked them.

    Hattie nodded. Of course! she said. I want to ride the Ferris wheel at least five times!

    Owen gasped. There will be a Ferris wheel? His family had moved to Pine Needle Grove a few months before. He had never been to the Maple Festival.

    Owen, there’s so much to do there! Sophie cried. The three friends were nearing the swings. There’s dragonfly racing. You can play games to win prizes, like cranberry necklaces and acorn-top yo-yos!

    There are ribbon-dancing grasshoppers! added Zoe, a bluebird who was swinging on a swing.

    And my mom’s bake stand too! added Winston, Sophie’s little brother. He ran between Sophie and Hattie and was gone in a flash.

    Yummm, said several students, rubbing their bellies. Lily
