About this title

From the Back Cover:

'One upon a time, not long ago, almost now, there was a young House ant called Mona Minim who was preparing to make her first journey out of the nest.' So begins this enchanting story of little Mona Minim in her yellow sunbonnet and floral apron and six black-buttoned shoes, who became lost while playing the Stair Game and was found by Barbara, the Garden Ant, who became her friend.
