Review
"Five Nice Mice series hits the road. . . . Tashiro gives each mouse a distinct look and personality, and kids will have fun picking them out of the crowd. The moral here is simple—an edible prize is best shared with friends—and who can argue with that? These mice really are nice." —Heather Seggel, BookPage
