In a faraway forest lives a mouse named Alfred J. Buttermouse. His ears are shaped like a butterfly's wings and bigger than normal. Because of his ears, Buttermouse is constantly teased by other animals. Having had enough of the mockery, Buttermouse decides to travel. With the help of the wind and his large ears, Buttermouse is flown far from home and shares life-changing experiences with a cowboy on the trail, the legendary Wright Brothers, and a band of pirates on the high seas. Cleverly woven in the fabric of each adventure are whimsical, retro-cute illustrations and historically accurate slices of time that will capture the interest and minds of young readers, promoting their innate sense of wonder and fun in reading.
