One by one, the seven blind mice investigate the strange Something by the pond. And one by one, they come back with a different theory. It's only when the seventh mouse goes out-and explores the whole Something-that the mice see the whole truth. Based on a classic Indian tale, Ed Young's beautifully rendered version is a treasure to enjoy again and again. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"Immensely appealing.\"(\u003ci\u003eThe Horn Book\u003c\/i\u003e, starred review)\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eCaldecott medalist Ed Young was born in Tientsin, China, and brought up in Shanghai.
