Patterson and Grabenstein have teemed up once again for another fantastic middle grade adventure story. This sequel to the original 2016 Word of Mouse novel follows the bright blue talking mouse Isaiah as he sets out to rescue one of his friends from the clutches of the evil scientists. Lamina Labs genetically engineered the mouse and his 96 siblings. Although it was shut down when they all escaped, the company has more labs and they want their mice back. This cute story is an adventure that is all about bravery and perseverance. The intricate line art by Jennifer L. Meyer is chock full of details and some of the word play is adorable. Although this book is a sequel, it can be easily read as a stand alone. The background for this story is woven seamlessly into the exposition and new readers will love this tail tale.
It was a great read. Just what I needed.
