The Outermost Mouse

Written by Lauren Wolk and Illustrated by Kristen Adam

The Outermost Mouse loves living at the very edge of the beach. She has the bright blue sky above her and soft, warm sand beneath her—almost like resting in her mother’s arms.

Her favorite place of all is her house, a cozy nest she built herself. She fills it with jam jars holding tiny flowers, lanterns that glow like gold, and a clock that gently tick‑tocks her to sleep each night.

But one day, a storm begins to grow. The sky turns dark, and a cold wind starts to howl. The little mouse must work quickly to protect her special home. Even though she’s small enough to fit inside a teacup, she is clever, strong, and brave—ready to face the wild waves and whatever the storm brings.
