Lindbergh

One small step for a mouse; one giant leap for aviation. These are dark times . . . for a small mouse. A new invention-the mechanical mousetrap-has caused all the mice but one to flee to America, the land of the free. But with cats guarding the steamships, trans-Atlantic crossings are no longer safe. In the bleakest of places . . . the one remaining mouse has a brilliant idea. He must learn to fly! Debut illustrator Torben Kuhlmann's inventive tale and stunning illustrations will capture the imagination of readers-young and old-with the death-defying feats of this courageous young mouse. AUTHOR: Torben Kuhlmann was born in Germany. Creative as a child, small airplanes, strange machines and steaming railways made their way into his drawings and later into his acrylic and oil paintings. He studied illustration and design at the University for Applied Sciences in Hamburg. He works as a freelance illustrator. 'Lindbergh - The Adventurous Tale of a Flying Mouse' is his first children's book. Colour illustrations
