The Mouse Bride｜English-Chinese Bilingual

Overview

A beloved Taiwanese folk tale filled with festive charm, cultural traditions, and a meaningful lesson about what it truly means to be “strong.”

“One-one, first day of the year… tonight, the mice are celebrating a wedding.”

This playful rhyme leads young readers into a lively mouse village, where the village chief is determined to find the most powerful groom for his daughter.

The sun, the cloud, the wind, the wall—each seems stronger than the last. But is there really such a thing as the strongest of all?

Through a series of humorous encounters and clever twists, children gradually discover that being the “strongest” may not matter as much as finding the one who is truly the right fit.

More than just a story, The Mouse Bride offers a rich cultural experience. Traditional wedding customs, Lunar New Year atmosphere, and detailed illustrations invite children to explore Taiwanese folk culture while developing observation skills and imagination.

Presented in both English and Chinese, this bilingual edition helps children build language confidence and reading skills through a familiar and engaging story.
