A humble mouse learns she has the same magical abilities as her favorite fabled hero and must save the world from grave danger in this first book in the cozy illustrated middle grade fantasy series Bravepaw that’s perfect for fans of The Tale of Despereaux and Kelly Barnhill. Titch Proudleaf has always dreamed of adventure, just like in the legends of gallant mouse hero Bravepaw. But nothing ever happens to small mice living in quiet villages…until a lost prince and dark magic find their way into the Plateau. When Titch saves the prince from the brink of death, she finds out that the world of Alluria is in grave danger, and by a twist of fate, it’s up to her to make things right. And so, equipped with a magical staff that sometimes works and accompanied by her best friend Huckleberry, Titch sets out on a quest that will change her life and the world of Alluria forever. But Titch knows she’s no Bravepaw—how can she ever hope to live up to the legend?
