Publisher Marketing:
It seems fair to say that there have never been as many mice in any book as there are in this one! This may well be because the protagonist, a singular and most ambitious cat, has promised himself that by the age of eighteen he will have imagined ONE MILLION MICE! Every stripe of mouse is imagined here, except for one--the most mysterious mouse!

"Touching on themes of solitude, creativity, and obsession, it's a story that's alternately elusive and philosophical, thanks to Shugaar's mischievous translation and D'Andrea's sly, sleek, and sumptuous drawings."--Publishers Weekly

"A delightfully zany and surreal exploration of the ways in which we humans obsess and isolate ourselves over real or imagined troubles--all told through the eyes of a perfectionistic, philosophical cat. An unexpected end makes this playful, mouse-filled romp a treasure to read."--Hannah DeCamp, Avid Bookshop, Athens Georgia
