They were very happy: the big one, the middle-sized one, and the little one. Next to the path, they saw something glittering, like a little piece of the sun. It was a little golden key. But what did it open? Could it be the key to a pirate's treasure chest? Would it open the gates of a gigantic medieval castle?

Padrón's marbled and canvas textures create an almost-three-dimensional world for the mice to explore, one with chunks of cheese tucked into tree branches and keyholes in everything from rocks to giant apples." <b>--Publishers Weekly</b></p><br><br><p>"Padrón's close-ups are so revealing that readers can view tiny mouse hair in the profiles. He creates a successful depth of field with mist-shrouded trees in the background and warm, textured images in the foreground." <b>--Kirkus Reviews</b></p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p>The award-winning author <b>Roberto Aliaga</b> was born in Spain in 1976.
