"Every night, a family has their supper and goes to bed. But once they are asleep, a family of mice comes out to find food for their supper--and then the mouse children play! One night, a mouse is spotted and the father calls the mouse catcher. The children warn the mice, who escape to the backyard, where they stay until winter. But once the weather begins to get colder, the children no longer see the mice playing in the evenings. Have they left without saying good-bye?"--Provided by publisher.
