Ground Control to Major Mouse

Major Mouse must trust others and herself to accomplish her first space launch. Detailed illustrations diagram her route as she listens to encouragement, follows procedures and overcomes her nervousness to make it to the launch in time! This story and illustrations appeal to readers who value the narrative and visual styles of M.C. Escher (Dutch Illustrator 1889-1972); Arnold Lobel's Frog and Toad are Friends, Harper Collins, 1970; David Macauley's Castle, Houghton Mifflin, 1977; and Richard Scarry's Busy Busy World, Goldencraft, 1970.
