review 1: A different and and wonderful fantasy, with Graeme Base's gorgeous, realistic paintings. The story seems to be set in the pre-television 20th century, on a wheat farm. Where this wheat farm is located is not specified in the book. Base lives in Australia, but the map on the wall of the boy's bedroom is of Texas. Both locations grow wheat, so it could be set either place. Anyway, the family's wheat farm is saved by a cadre of miniature elephants.
review 2: It’s a troubling time for Jim’s family farm. With the threat of plague looming Jim’s Mother tells him his pet mouse “will have to go.” When the harvester breaks and things are looking bleak Jim sees a funny looking man in the field. Strange things start to happen when news of a locust swarm comes. Ho... morew will the farm survive? This book is beautiful and inspirational. Graeme Base’s distinct style resonates through this captivating tale. – Hannah less
