Fearless Field Mouse

A charming story that tells of a field mouse who reads stories about great adventures and fearless knights, but who himself is a bit scared of everything…

One day, however, the little mouse sets out for an adventure like the brave heroes he so admires. Field Mouse decides that it is time for him to do good deeds as well – but what kind of good acts could he endeavor? That is what he will courageously go find out.

Universal themes of courage and self-belief with an unexpected but relatable main character are brought to life in the seemingly classic but quirky illustrations. The art is inspired by Van Gogh and films by Wes Anderson. This is only the beginning of the stories about the Fearless Field Mouse, who will be starring in his own picture book series.
