This is a wordless book about a mouse that escapes from the claws of an owl predator. After escaping the mouse is still in danger because it ended up in the paw of a lion. The lion was feeling kind and let the mouse go. Later on when the lion get in trouble with hunters the mouse comes to the rescue.
I would definitely use this book in my classrooms for students from Prekindergarten to second grade. It is a wordless book so preschoolers are able to look at the pictures and for a little older students they will be able to read through the pictures. I could use this book for a lesson over predictions or comprehension.
