Bookroo's summary

Mouse struggles to express his anger as his friends stomp, hop, and scream. While Bear, Hare, and Bobcat have their ways, Mouse feels out of place. But when he discovers his own method—still and quiet—he learns that his unique approach might be the best. Meanwhile, Miles faces a different challenge when his toy is broken by his brother, transforming his reflection into a big, red, furry monster named Mad. Can both Mouse and Miles find peace in their own ways?

From the publisher

When his little brother breaks his toy, Miles gets mad, but when he looks at himself in the mirror he sees a big, red, furry monster named Mad.
