Bookroo's summary

In a jungle where size matters, Big Bro the mouse is larger than life, sending creatures of all sizes into a frenzy. But what happens when the jungle's biggest mouse becomes too much to handle? As animals scatter in fear, the jungle's harmony is at stake. Will anyone dare to confront Big Bro, or will his colossal presence continue to reign? Dive into a world of unexpected twists and rollicking fun, where the smallest creatures face the biggest challenges.

From the publisher

Quick! Everybody hide! Big Bro’s coming! He’s rough, he’s tough, and he’s as big as… Well, you’ll soon see how big he is! Jez Alborough, the author-illustrator of the best-selling “Where’s My Teddy?” and “It’s the Bear!,” creates another slapstick sidesplitter for very small readers (and REALLY BIG readers, too)!
