The Mouse That Roared Series by Leonard Wibberley

A tale of Grand Fenwick set 500 years before The Mouse that Roared. Even more entertaining for its plausibility, this prequel has the same dry wit and humor that makes The Mouse that Roaredso endearing.

At the time, the U.S. was afraid of a nuclear attack by Russia the idea of an attack by a small country was so absurd as to seem comical.

At the time, the U.S. was afraid of a nuclear attack by Russia the idea of an attack by a small country was so absurd as to seem comical. Wibberley s tiny European nation is furious about unfair U.S. trading practices, so they send an army to invade New York City, march up Broadway, and accidentally capture the world s newest and most destructive bomb. Then they have to figure out what to do with it. A whimsical cross between Kubrick and Kafka, The Mouse That Roared is a quirky classic of world literature, a poignant tale of political morality, and a hilarious, ultimately triumphant portrait of international relations from the perspective of the little guy. less
