Pulled by a thread through a fog, Mowzl arrives in the human world
from a future time. In his home world Mowzl is a real mouse; here
in the human world he is a toy - but alive, with a heart and
feelings. He is found by Pip and LuLu, who are grown-ups, and LuLu
makes him a woolen pouch in which he can fly. He talks with wild
creatures and is upset to learn that the world is being badly
damaged by what humans are doing. In his home world there are no
humans to be seen and the world, or "wild web", is healthy. Mowzl
needs Pip to write his story to help him remember where he came
from and how to get back, and Pip writes everything that happens.
When Mowzl meets two children called Billy and Larky, they find
that they can understand the wild talk too, but only when they are
with the mouse, because of his magic. They are excited to learn
from creatures about the wild web, and they want to do something to
help. Billy and Larky soon get their friends involved, and they all
listen to the stories that Mowzl tells. Gradually, the mystery of
what happened to Mowzl before the fog is revealed. The Adventures
of Horatio Mowlz is an illustrated children's story that reflects
on the impacts human activity is having on the environment, whilst
