New Picture Book! Hermelin: the Detective Mouse, Mini Grey

I love Mini Grey so much.  Traction Man is so amazing, and Toys in Space is just adorable.  Now we get a story about a mouse detective solving adorable cozy neighborhood (super-simple) mysteries.

Hermelin: the Detective Mouse
"as told to Mini Grey"
ISBN: 9780385754330

After a slew of mysterious cases are solved by a clever individual named Hermelin, the residents of Offley Street desperately want to meet their new neighborhood benefactor; until they realize he's a mouse.  Emily the journalist (and aspiring detective in her own right) realizes that cleverness and kindness (and a quick mind in an emergency) are necessary traits for a detective, regardless of species.  The story ends with the inauguration of their joint detective agency, solving the remaining mystery of Offley Street; where have all the cats gone?

Oh I hope this will be a continuing series!  The notes are adorable, and simply perfection.
