Mice in Sophie's Mattress

- An allegory of tenacity, adaptability and acceptance

About Mice in Sophie's Mattress

Mice are living cozily in a forty-seven-year-old mattress and box spring in a bedroom on the second floor of an old white farmhouse. The comfortable lives of the resident rodents are forever altered when a new mattress and box spring replaces their former home. Survival now becomes their priority. This is a story told on two levels, offering insights into the lives of Sophie and Herb Brunzhoffa and also the lives of the mice who live on their farm. It can be seen as an elaboration of Robbie Burns's observation that the best-laid plans of mice and men often don't work out as they expect. This novel offers no simple answers to the vicissitudes of life but is indeed "an allegory of tenacity, adaptability and acceptance."
