The Great American Mousical

Reach for this book when your child is facing performance anxiety, struggling to work in a group, or needs to see that mistakes are just part of the creative process. It is a charming story about a community of theater-loving mice living beneath a grand Broadway house who must pull together to save their show when their leading lady goes missing just before opening night. Through the eyes of Pippin, the rehearsal assistant, children learn about the intricate world of musical theater and the importance of every role, whether on stage or behind the scenes. It celebrates resilience and the idea that the show must go on, even when things go wrong. It is perfectly suited for independent readers aged 8 to 12 or as a delightful family read-aloud.
