Mouse Visits Everglades National Park (Mouse Traveler)

Written by Tricia Gardella

A delightful adventure for primary-grade readers. A mouse gives us a guided tour of Everglades National Park. This intrepid traveler is delighted to find his bird friend at the park.

The bird volunteers to guide his friend. First, they visit many of the birds that inhabit the swamp. Readers learn about egrets and spoonbills. But the mouse wants to see alligators and crocodiles, so he moves on to the mangrove swamp.

Tired from his daylong adventure, the mouse uses his magic acorn to get home.

At the end of the tale, the author includes facts about the Everglades and questions to measure comprehension.

A fun book that contains an adventure story with knowledge about the Everglades.
