Sadie Mouse Wrecks the House

Elliott Kalan, illustrated by Tim Miller

Sadie is a rule-following mouse who listens to her mother and takes her chores seriously. Her brother avoids those responsibilities and leaves the difficult work to Sadie. Reaching her limit, Sadie decides to behave differently. She throws garbage from the windows, makes ice cream sundaes on her bed, and causes a tidal wave in the living room. Her change turns the home upside down.
