True Story Mouse Who Never Asked For By True Story Mouse Who Never Asked For

The True Story of a Mouse Who Never Asked for It is a visually striking, deeply feminist, contemporary retelling of a Spanish folk tale, rediscovered and brought to new life by author Ana Cristina Herreros and illustrator Violeta Lopiz. In Herreros and Lopiz''s version—which sharply diverges from the most mainstream and popularized telling of the story—a mouse is approached by many suitors, rejecting all but one: a cat, whose gentle meow assures her that he won''t bring her harm. But one must remember that a kitten always grows up to be a cat...and thusly, will devour the mouse.
