Here Comes Thursday

The Tale of a Lost Mouse Who Finds a New Home

Thursday the Mouse fell from a balloon having just escaped from the Home for Waif-Mice and Stray-Mice.

The Peck family of church mice adopt him and give him his name - Thursday - because the day he arrived was a Thursday to remember.

Thursday joins the Pecks in their organ-loft home at the church of St Mary's in the Valley.

This appears to be a charming children's story about a mouse named Thursday who finds belonging with a family of church mice after a dramatic escape and fall from a balloon. The book seems to focus on themes of adoption, finding home, and community, set in the atmospheric location of a church organ loft. The whimsical premise and detailed setting suggest it would appeal to young readers who enjoy animal characters and cozy, domestic adventures.
