Hopper is just an ordinary pet shop mouse before he escapes. Soon he finds himself below the bustling streets of Brooklyn, deep within the untamed tangles of transit tunnels, and in Atlantia, a glorious utopian rat civilization.
But all is not what it seems. Though Hopper is treated as a royal guest, he misses his siblings that he lost in the escape attempt. That, and Atlantia is constantly threatened by the rebels who wish to bring the city to its knees. And there are cats everywhere in Atlantia, cats that leave the citizens unharmed… and no one can seem to answer why.
Soon, Hopper is caught in the crosshairs of a colossal battle, one that crosses generations and species. As the clashes rage, Hopper learns terrible, extraordinary secrets: Deadly secrets about Atlantia. Painful secrets about his friends.
And one powerful secret about his destiny…

Mouseheart is the tale of a brave young mouse and an explored world. Hopper's mom disappeared and now all he has left is his sister, Pinkie, and his little brother, Pup. But when he is forced into the world of the rats and then stolen to the world of the mice, he has to decide....who is telling the truth? What is hidden in the refugee camps? And how is he the "Chosen One?" I loved Mouseheart. I thought "Listen up, you, you don't usually read books told by mice!" but I decided to give it a go because my aunts recommended it to me, and it was worth it! I would give this book six out of five, but since there's only five stars, I'll have to go with a full 100% awesomeness rating! -- BKS reviews
Hopper was scarred in his caged and becomes a hero
An unoriginal story, yet descriptive writing. A bit too descriptive, in my opinion, as some words were indecipherable. But it was good. I won't say I absolutely adored it, but I can't say that I despised it either. Plus, I don't think using mice as characters was the best idea, but Lisa did her best. The inside illustrations were a welcome surprise.
