This book is weird. The mouse *seems* to be having perfectly natural nightmares about a cat chasing him, but then the nightmares turn out to be tied to the mouse's irrational fear of the cupboard under the stairs (too much Harry Potter, perhaps?) and a field mouse who's been trying to wake him up every night so they can play monsters. It starts out as an interesting take on nightmares and facing fears but turns into something that doesn't gel. Alas. ( )
