Everyone's scared of something . . .
Book Description
Young children will identify with the little mouse who documents his fears in the pages of this book – from loud noises and the dark to being sucked down the plughole. Original and innovative, with flaps, die-cuts and even a hilarious fold-out map, this is another extraordinary picture book from the creator of WOLVES, winner of the 2005 Kate Greenaway Medal and Nestlé Award Bronze Medal.

I bought this book for my grandson's 5th birthday, however his 6 year old sister; a confident reader, took a liking to it straight away, reading it cover to cover and laughing out loud. She also read it to any one who came to the house pointing out the amusing illustrations and 'extras' in case they didn't get the joke.
A straight forward story for the very young it is the added bits, maps, news cuttings, etc, that will keep older children amused, as they did me.
I have bought a previous book by this author which was enjoyable, but this one had more to it. I would definately recommend it.

I really love this book. It is just delightful from start to finish.It will have readers of all ages enthralled and covers so many areas.
The first really appealing thing about it is the details- with cut out maps , newspaper cuttings, handwritten scribbles and pop ups you dont know what each page will hold. You really go on a journey with poor little mouse- finding out about all different types of fears- which allow kids to explore their own. Its an ideal book for kids to read on their own or with adults.
The drawings are lovely and you really feel like you have found mouses handwritten journal.Its also a great stepping stone for kids to create their own fear diaries .
I am a childrens counsellor and love this book- even as a 36 adult I find it delightful and would recommend it to everyone.
Just make sure you buy the hardback version for all the extra touches. You can read it again and again as there is so much detail you will always find something new. One of the best books out their.

My son is finding reading difficult and for a while, refused to have stories read to him because he perceived them as being (school) "work". I have to choose books for him very carefully and this was one I knew straight away that he would like.
The book is interactive and appeals to a childs imagination because of the chewed edges, holes in pages, pull out maps and newspapers. This is a lovely book and one I would consider giving to children as gifts.
I can see that this book will remain with us for a very long time.
