A Mouse Called Miika
Author: Matt Haig
Publisher: Knopf Books for Young Readers
ISBN: 0593377419
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
Ratatouille meets Roald Dahl in the funny and fantastical story of a determined mouse on a mission to procure the world's tastiest cheese. From the author of A Boy Called Christmas–now a Netflix movie starring Kristen Wiig, Maggie Smith and Henry Lawfull! When Nikolas left the only home he had ever known, it was a mouse named Miika who kept him company, and it was Miika who accompanied him on his journey to the Far North, in search of his father. But before the events of A Boy Called Christmas, this little mouse was the hero of his own story. A Mouse Called Miika is an epic adventure story on a miniature scale. It's a tale of mice and men (and more mice). It is about one independent mouse who gets fed up with the other mice, and sets out on a quest of his own to prove that cheese exists, and learns to appreciate other creatures. It is also a tale of great love (of cheese) and great danger. And learning the lesson that, with cheese, as with life, what matters most is not how strongly you smell, but how strong you are on the inside. Funny, cheeky, wise, and packed full of Matt Haig's signature warmth. This is set to become a year-round children's favorite.

For imaginative story-telling and funny but meaningful satire this latter-day Swift is unbeatable." - Los Angeles Times "Irish-born Leonard Wibberley has frequently been acclaimed the greatest satirist since Voltaire...and well he might be." - Financial Analysts Journal "This is a typical Wibberley book, which means it's charming, witty, and direct in its satirical aim at the world we live in." - The Huntington Herald "What could have been just a cute fable is a masterpiece of satire as conglomerates conglomerate and the world wobbles on the tip of Wibberley's pen." - The St. Paul Pioneer Press ..".a cautionary lesson, which Mr. Wibberley spells out with admirable clarity and wit." - The New York Times "This new book is an absolute delight." - Chicago Tribune "This book made me laugh and think at the same time. Who knew economics could be so funny?" - Goodreads Reviewer BOOKS IN THE GRAND FENWICK SERIES Books 2 through 5 are best read after The Mouse That Roared, but all of the books can be read and enjoyed at any point in the series.

The Diana Chronicles
Author: Tina Brown
Publisher: Anchor
ISBN: 0385522886
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 562
Book Description
#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Years after her death, Princess Diana remains a mystery. This "insanely readable and improbably profound" biography (Chicago Tribune) reveals the truth as only famed journalist Tina Brown could tell it. "The best book on Diana." —The New Yorker Was she “the people’s princess,” who electrified the world with her beauty and humanitarian missions? Or was she manipulative and media-savvy and nearly brought down the monarchy? Tina Brown, former Editor-in-Chief of Tatler, England’s glossiest gossip magazine; Vanity Fair; and The New Yorker gives us the answers. Tina knew Diana personally and has far-reaching insight into the royals and the Queen herself. In The Diana Chronicles, you will meet a formidable female cast and understand as never before the society that shaped them: Diana's sexually charged mother, her scheming grandmother, the stepmother she hated but finally came to terms with, and bad-girl Fergie, her sister-in-law, who concealed wounds of her own. Most formidable of them all was her mother-in-law, the Queen, whose admiration Diana sought till the day she died. Add Camilla Parker-Bowles, the ultimate "other woman" into this combustible mix, and it's no wonder that Diana broke out of her royal cage into celebrity culture, where she found her own power and used it to devastating effect.
