I also received a digital review copy through NetGalley. Esta crítica foi escrita no âmbito dos Primeiros Críticos do LibraryThing. Delightful, charming and poignant. Simple but evocative illustrations about our Douglas, who is not who/what you're expecting. Esta crítica foi escrita no âmbito dos Primeiros Críticos do LibraryThing. A delightful picture book/early chapter book hybrid. Charming, cinematic, and poignant. Gorgeously illustrated. I love a femme action hero protagonist, especially one with a gender-bending name.Disclosure: I received a review copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. Esta crítica foi escrita no âmbito dos Primeiros Críticos do LibraryThing. Douglas is a mouse that might not have sought adventure but learns to cope like her movie star namesake when adventure pulls her from her movie theater home and out into the world. The book is bursting with charm. Main and supporting characters are memorable. The prose is sparing employed but still manages to convey a lot of emotion. The illustrations are marvelous, static but dynamic at the same time. It is a great story for readers transitioning from picture to chapter books. Also makes a great read aloud and introduction to inferences. A strong effort all around and well worth a read. Esta crítica foi escrita no âmbito dos Primeiros Críticos do LibraryThing. This is a charming story, well-told, and thoroughly engrossing. The main characters are elegantly drawn, and the minor characters generally all get their moment in the sun as well. Illustrations are simple but evocative, and since no illustrator is identified I'm assuming that the author did them as well. I'm impressed...sem críticas | adicionar uma crítica

"When Iris Espinosa goes to the cinema, she doesn't expect to meet a small mouse. And she certainly doesn't expect that mouse to stow away in her sweater pocket. At home, Iris is delighted by the mouse's daring, which reminds her of the actor Douglas Fairbanks. And so begin the adventures of a sweet, plucky mouse named Douglas, who must overcome obstacles aplenty, from hungry cats to broom-wielding humans, as she journeys across the tall rooftops of Bloomville to return to her movie-theater home. Full of high-stakes chases, clever escapes, and valiant rescues, Randy Cecil's story is a cinematic and meticulously crafted celebration of courage and friendship. In his follow-up to Lucy, Randy Cecil again tells a visually arresting tale in four acts -- this time about a brave movie-theater mouse on a daring adventure."--provided by publisher.
