Sammy Shine's life as Hank's pet mouse is simple and quiet--until he flies off in remote controlled airplane and gets lost.
When Sammy Shine crashes into the forest, he ends up in a whole new world; no longer does he live in comfort in his shoe box in Hank's room. Now he's lost in the woods, with no way to get home, and a dangerous enemy. Fortunately, a group of new friends, including another mouse, an injured crow, a newt, and a shrew, will help him find and repair his plane so he can try to get back home.
