Story & Craft: Sir Mouse To The Rescue

Cardboard Castle, inspired by Sir Mouse To The Rescue by Dirk Nielandt and published by Book Island.

This activity is part of seven weeks of stories and craft inspired by books from Bristol based publisher Book Island.

Mouse has a sword. She wears a suit of armour. She is a knight. She is bold Sir Mouse.

Dragon does not have a sword. She does not wear a suit of armour. She is just Dragon.

Knights fight dragons. But Mouse and Dragon never fight each other. Mouse and Dragon are best friends. Join Mouse and Dragon as they rescue Prince, outwit Cat, have a fancy dress party and find out all about friendship, knighthood and the true meaning of happy every after.
