Strubel and the Village of Strawberry (e-book) (used book) | bookbook.eu

Description

A group of mice realized the extreme dangers of living in the forest and foraging for themselves. They were unprotected and exposed to predators, so they chose to find a place to live that would protect them, not only from predators but from the harshness of nature.

Soon, Strubel and his friends discovered a petrified hollow log with crystals embedded into the top allowing warm sunlight to shine through and established the Village of Strawberry. They learned to care for each other and their village prospered.

Then after a while, for no reason anyone was aware of, the village started to fail and rules were being ignored. Their main food source, the wild strawberry gardens, was dying from lack of care.

Strubel knew he needed to show the villagers that the things one loves the most, but fails to take care of, would soon be lost. Secretly, Strubel took charge and deliberately made things worse. It was a hard lesson to teach and to learn but learn they did and the experience and trials they had would never be forgotten.
