The Ups and Downs of the Castle Mice

From the creator of Paddington Bear comes a tale of dastardly villains and unlikely tiny heroes...

The Perk family live in a doll's house in a castle. The castle is their home - but when someone new with devious plans comes to rule the roost, will our family of mice come up trumps?

Full of humour and warmth, this nostalgic tale by Michael Bond is brought to life with exquisite detail by Emily Sutton.
