Can't Catch Me

Can't Catch Me

"Can't catch me!" sang Jake. "I'm the fastest mouse in the world!"

A wicked, wild read-aloud romp from Timothy Knapman, author of Soon, and Simona Ciraolo, winner of the Sebastian Walker Prize, this is the story of Jake ... the fastest mouse there ever was. NO ONE can catch him. Not the fox, not the wolf, not even the bear. 'Can't catch me," teases Jake. 'I'm the fastest mouse in the world!" But cunning Old Tom Cat has his eye on that sweet, young mouse for his dinner and he's got a plan…
