Bookroo's summary

Mouse is feeling down, and his forest friends—Badger, Hedgehog, Rabbit, and Mole—go to great lengths to cheer him up. They leap, splash, and flutter, but nothing seems to work. As they explore trees, ponds, and tunnels, the question remains: what will finally bring a smile to Mouse's face? Discover the simple yet powerful solution that turns Mouse's day around in this heartwarming tale of friendship and the healing power of a hug.

From the publisher

Mouse feels lower than low. His forest friends, including Badger, Hedgehog, Rabbit, and Mole all knock themselves out trying to cheer up the little guy, to no avail. In the end, all Mouse really needs is a hug! Jed Henry’s wonderful illustrations, in watercolor pastels and colored pencils, beautifully complement the spare text. Readers will love seeing all the exuberant animal antics in trees, ponds, and even underground tunnels as they try to distract their gloomy friend. A charming antidote for the blues.
