Loudmouse

Loudmouse might be small, but he sure makes a lot of noise! His mama wishes he were a bit quieter, but Loudmouse's booming voice sure comes in handy when there's a cat on the prowl, a mousetrap waiting to be sprung, and a burglar on the loose. Young readers and listeners will delight in this charming tale of the little mouse with the big voice and a taste for cheese.
Poet, professor, and father of three, Richard Wilbur wrote volumes of verse that won such coveted awards as the Pulitzer Prize, the National Book Award, and the Edna St. Vincent Millay Memorial Award. His story is illustrated by artist Don Almquist, whose distinctive drawings appeared in leading magazines of the 1960s.
