Acerca deste livro eletrónico
Moon Mouse lives far out in space, with only his garden and his ideas for company. Mouse loves his moon home, but sometimes, when he spies a birthday party on Earth through his telescope, he finds himself wishing he could join in with the fun.
Then one day, a birthday balloon floats away from a birthday boy and up, up, up - all the way to Moon Mouse's garden! Will Mouse find the courage to leave the comfort and security of his home to discover what it means to make a friend?
