Synopsis

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.

For a fun school project, Sophie Mouse and her classmates each have to present about what it's like to be 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.

About 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.

Sophie identifies the strengths of others but has a hard time identifying her own. She discovers hers at the end of the book. Her two friends learn to look to Sophie's interest and find a creative way to include her in the way they were playing.......more

Read aloud with the younger three, again in one sitting. They love this series and I do too. I love that there is mild peril, real emotions, and real conversations and resolutions. The characters are so sweet and fun, a really well done personification of animals while still retaining their individu......more

My 6yo: 5 stars! Only I wish I could give it 150 😊 I was a little sad that she couldn't find facts about herself. It's just a good story and the friends are being good and kind. It's good to be helpful to your friends. I loved the facts and I learned new things! My 10yo: 5 stars I liked how I was able......more

Another darling little book! After finishing the first book in the series today, my 3 year old begged to read another Sophie Mouse book. She LOVES these! Our library didn't have the second book available so we read this one (the 3rd in the series) and it doesn't feel like we missed out on anything.......more
