Mike the mouse isn’t like other mice. He just won’t eat cheese. Fortunately, his friend Ashley, the little girl who lives in the house, feeds him lots of tasty treats from all over the world. Mike loves sushi, pizza, crème brûlée, tacos, and more! But, hold on, don’t some those have cheese in them? Find out what happens when Ashley and her family go on holiday, and Mike has to try something new. He might be in for a surprise!

This delightful picture book explores how even the fussiest eaters can be tempted to try new flavors. And, if you’re anything like Mike, you might find you develop quite a taste for international cuisine along the way!
