Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"Willie Mouse" by Alta Tabor is a charming children's story written in the early 20th century. This delightful tale follows the adventurous spirit of a little mouse named Willie as he embarks on a quest to find the moon, spurred on by the whimsical belief that it is made of green cheese. The book is intended for young readers and embodies the themes of curiosity and exploration familiar in early children's literature. The story begins with Willie Mouse packing his provisions and setting out on his journey, meeting various animal friends along the way who offer differing opinions on his quest. Despite their skepticism, Willie remains determined, engaging with characters like Mr. Woodmouse, Miss Jenny Wren, and Mrs. Mole, who provide humorous and light-hearted dialogue. As Willie encounters obstacles, including a frightening moment with Mrs. Owl, he is eventually saved by a good elf who helps him return home. Ultimately, Willie Mouse realizes that the journey was as important as the destination and decides to wait until he is older and wiser to pursue his dream of reaching the moon.
