Amazon Description
Horace, Morris, and Dolores do everything together and know that they will be Friends Forever...until one day, when Horace and Morris become part of an exclusive boys' club and Dolores finds herself left out. Soon, she, too, finds her own club, where no boys are allowed and girls are supposed to have fun doing girl stuff. But after a while, Horace and Morris and Dolores realize they aren't happy at all doing what everyone in their clubs seems to enjoy. They miss each other. Is it too late to be friends again?Join these three charming mouse friends as they learn to do what they like, rather than what others say they should like.
One Potato Review
Pity the tomboy. Two boy-mice in an inseparable trio of adventurers leave their friend Dolores at the doorstep of the Mega-Mice clubhouse where everyone is sword fighting, sling shotting and otherwise nailing each other’s shoelaces to the floor. “No Girls Aloud Allowed” reads the sign on the porch. “A girl mouse must do what a girl mouse must do what a girl mouse must do…” decides Dolores, and redirects herself to the Cheese Puffs club where that day the scheduled project is “Gifts for Mother Made from Muenster.” And the next: “How to Get a Fella Using Mozzarella.” Pretty grim pickings in other words. And Dolores doesn’t stand for it – swordfights or dating tips? - just like we hope she won’t.
