About This Book
Hildegarde is no ordinary mouse; she's the Mouse Mistress of Saint Bartholomew's, and it's her job to keep all the other church mice safe. But her job is far from easy! First, there's a visit from the dreaded exterminators. And as if that weren't bad enough, St. Bartholomew's is holding a ceremony called the Blessing of the Animals — and that means the church will soon be filled with all kinds of pets...including cats! How can Hildegarde protect her scampering, squeaking tribe from the church's many dangers?About the Authors or Illustrators
