What is The Wideawake Mice about?

In Mr Wideawake’s toy shop, a family of wooden mice sits quietly on a shelf. Grandfather, Grandmother, Uncle Maximus, Aunt Matilda and the young mice Jeremy and Miranda have never known life beyond the shop. Then a sprinkle of magic dust and a beam of moonlight bring them to life! After sneaking outside, the mice face the strange and exciting world beyond the door. With courage, curiosity and one another’s help, they set off to find a safe new home.
