The Princess Mouse by Aaron Shepard
An enchanting tale of bravery and true love, with beautiful illustrations and a timeless message. A fairy tale from Finland. In Mikko's family, when a boy is ready to marry he cuts down a tree and follows the direction it points to until he finds a wife. When it is his turn, Mikko's tree points straight into a wood where the first creature he comes to is a beautiful mouse. Braving the mockery of his family, Mikko takes the mouse home to marry. Suddenly freed from an enchantment by the power of true love, his bride turns into a beautiful princess.
