About the author

Hannah Shaw was born into a large family of sprout munching vegetarians.

As is the oldest child, she spent her formative years trying to be good at everything; from roller-skating to gymnastics. Hannah soon realised there wasn’t much chance of her becoming a gold medal winning gymnast, so she resigned herself to drawing pictures and writing stories!

By some mean feat Hannah found herself at the University of Brighton doing a degree in illustration. Soon an overwhelming obsession to make books took over her life. Inspired by her love of furry animals, Hannah wrote and illustrated her first picture book Evil Weasel, published by Jonathan Cape (Random House) in 2008. Her next book Erroll, about a boy who finds a squirrel in his packet of nuts, is out in 2009.

Hannah currently lives in a little cottage in the Cotswolds, with her husband Ben the blacksmith and her rescue dog Ren. Her over-active imagination fuels new ideas but unfortunately keeps her awake at night!

I tried to finish it, but decided, ultimately, that life is too short. Some elementary school children will love it, but a mí, me dió asco.

Es un libro con una aventura simple pero emocionante que te lleva de la mano de Sami un ratón que busca el paradero de su tío embarcándose en una aventura tierna y emocionante.
