Book details
The Mice Storm
Description
Flynn's life is turned upside down when he is placed in a foster home shortly before the worst winter storm in a century. He had been an ordinary 10-year-old until a car crash took his parents and left him in a wheelchair with a broken leg. His only friend and family is Gray, who is a wise-cracking mouse with a big city attitude. And this mouse is determined to keep him safe. The boy is lost, confused, and angry at the hand he's been dealt. But his spirits are lifted when they discover a faction of mice that are living in the foster home. These house mice are being hunted by an angry tribe of field mice who are dead-set on their annihilation. Despite Gray's objection, Flynn agrees to help these house mice - even if it means blowing up every foster home they wind up in. What do the field mice want so badly? Did Flynn make the right choice? Will he end up with no home and no family? The Mice Storm is full of twists and turns, humor, epic battles, issues dealing with family, loss, anger and betrayal. The story is a riveting, unputdownable action-adventure for kids of all ages.
