The Adventures of Mimi la Fourmi - Paperback
by Constance Lindgreen (Author), Susan Longmire (Illustrator), Kate Mueller (Editor)
A story of unusual friendship and adventure.
Mimi la Fourmi, a curious little French ant, is swept up and carried off - all the way to Denmark! Will the Danish ants she meets like her? Will she like Denmark? What's it like to live in a place where the language and customs are so different? And will she ever get back to France?
With help from Holger Myre, a clever Danish ant, and Gregory Gray, a debonair, world-traveling goose, Mimi finds both a solution to her journey home - and lasting friendship.
The Adventures of Mimi la Fourmi is a richly illustrated tale that blends humor, culture, and imagination. It celebrates resilience, friendship, and the joy of discovering new places - whether you walk on six legs or soar through the sky.
Inspired by a true event, this charming book lives up to its opening line: "This is a story about the power of friendship, and it begins with an adventure."
