A tiny talking mouse sets off on a giant adventure to rescue his friend in this fun, heartwarming illustrated adventure, perfect for fans of Stuart Little and The Mouse and the Motorcycle.
Talking mouse Isaiah is free from the experiments that left him with blue fur and a big voice, and living a picture-perfect life with his human friend, Hailey. But the evil scientists—and their evil talking cats—are hot on Isaiah’s trail. When they mouse-nap his friend Mikayla, it's up to Isaiah and Hailey to rescue her.
Their search takes them on a cross-country adventure, where they face foes and make unexpected friends. If they can find Mikayla, they might even find a way to free Isaiah's siblings and create a happy ending for all of the lab mice.

Praise for Word of Mouse:A Utah Beehive Award Nominee!
A Kentucky Bluegrass Award Nominee!
A New York Charlotte Award Nominee!
A Texas Cy-Fair Horned Toad Tales Award Nominee!
A Indiana Young Hoosier Award Nominee! * "Patterson and frequent collaborator Grabenstein offers this charming tale of Isaiah, a blue (yes-bright blue!) mouse, and his effort to break his family out of a very bad place. Sutphin provides black-and-white spot illustrations that recall the great mouse protagonists of the mid-20th century. With smart witticisms to launch each quick-paced chapter, Isaiah is truly a mouse that roars."—Kirkus Reviews, starred review * "Children's literature offers a long tradition of clever mice who accomplish amazing feats, and Patterson and Grabenstein's Isaiah seems destined to join them. Here's hoping this unique hero returns soon with further adventures."—Booklist, starred review * "Though this story has strong messages of accepting differences, finding common ground and the courage to be yourself, and loving your enemies, it remains lighthearted and funny. Young listeners will love it."
