Mouse Visits Yosemite National Park is a children’s adventure picture book written by Tricia Gardella, featuring illustrations by Ginger Nielson. It follows a small mouse who wonders about the views at Yosemite National Park. He taps a few keys on his magical keyboard and—boom—he’s suddenly in Yosemite. Mouse goes on a hike, running into a critter named Pika, a flying squirrel, and a friendly deer mouse named Slim, and spends a night in the park. The next morning, Mouse keeps exploring. He jumps on a tram, joins a bunch of hikers, and checks out all kinds of amazing sights, seeing the famous Yosemite waterfalls and wildlife popping up around every corner. Follow Mouse as he dives into Yosemite’s wild heart and stumbles into all sorts of adventure.
