Mouse is looking through her telescope and sees a thunderstorm coming to land far out on the ocean. She decides to warn the other animals and creatures on the Island. Mouse calls Moose. Moose calls goose and so on until everyone has been warned and gathered to a safe place.
Mouse Calls is a nice book about helping others weather the storm. Pace uses simple words and rhyming animal names to tell the story. The illustrations are cute and expressive, I felt the story needed one more page at the beginning to let us know why mouse was calling all the animals instead of having to infer from the picture on the cover that she was worried about the storm.
