    I began reading The Travels of Tuckmouse in anticipation of reviewing a child’s book, but found myself drawn into the tale very quickly, and despite having other books on my bedside table, I couldn’t stop reading – just one more chapter . . . until I’d read them all. It’s a delightful, amusing and informative story that takes the reader on a journey from the comfortable Victorian life of rural England (of a very respectable family of mice) not only to mysterious 19th century Egypt, but enchantingly beyond, into a wonderful world of imagination. It is the kind of book that could quite easily lure you away from television and back into that gracious, companionable time when everyone gathered around the fire to listen to Mama or Papa read the next fascinating chapter – with cries of ‘Oh no!’ when it’s time for bed. This is indeed a story for all ages. Enjoy!
