NEW STATESMAN'S CHILDREN'S BOOK OF THE YEAR! An exquisite story within a story as told by mouse to a cat who wants to eat him...

'A delicious treat.' Guardian
Brie the mouse is caught in the paws of Gorgonzola the cat, facing certain death. How can he survive? Well, the cheese shop where they live is a source of great inspiration. The cheese labels tell stories of a world beyond their four walls . . . So Brie starts telling a riveting story, of princesses who don't want to be married, of cats that can turn into panthers, of a magical realm deep within a mountain and an extraordinary quest to break a spell . . .
Children will be dazzled by the extraordinarily detailed illustrations. This promises to be a book to treasure forever.
