The Life And Times Of Piebald The Mouse

Piebald the laboratory mouse escapes in order to join his father in the city. Through his adventures, Piebald comes to realize that the Creator has made it possible for him to survive the dangers of the forest and find his dad.

A great Wind Storm struck the Forrest Village but because all living quarters were built underground there was no loss of life. The Animal Facility was destroyed but some of the animals had survived the storm. "Come over here, Piebald said. You are welcome to live with us." Riflemen were hired to kill survivors of the Great Wind Storm. White Angel told the Riflemen it was against the law to shoot Forrest Animals. The Riflemen left and returned with leaflets saying-"NO TRESPASSING NO SHOOTING ALLOWED." The Village Animals were saved. Piebald taught The Villagers about The Great Creator. Pierre, a French mouse was visiting the area and heard about the Animal Village. He was impressed by the work of the Village Elders. Pierre invited Piebald to help him establish a Village in Paris, France. Piebald's youngsters persuaded their Da to let them go to France instead. Pierre taught them French and they taught Pierre to speak their Village language. Joseph and Mary, two Irish mice staying at the Paris Village heard the Piebald Storytellers teachings of the Creator God and they asked Pierre to help them fly from Paris to the Forrest Village. They wanted to return to Ireland and teach the Irish animals about the Great Creator. Joseph and Mary asked Piebald and Alpha to go with them. The book closes with the four mice on their way to Paris and then on to Ireland. Dr. Gordon J. Eaton is a Ph.D. Biologist. He graduated from Brown University, Providence, R.I.

Serving the needs of pigment cell biologists, cellular physiologists, developmental geneticists, researchers interested in melanoma and more, this new book showcases a blend of new technologies and new insights in the field of pigmantary genetics of mice, with comparative information on other animals. Graduate students can learn here the terminology and scope of the field, and animal fanciers can discover the genetics behind common color variants of mammals. The book is hailed for being written by four of the premier scientists in the field. These authors aim to present the molecular /cellular work in the context of phenotype and the interacting functions of genes that direct the development and function of one biological system. For other researchers, the depth of genetic knowledge on the pigmantary system makes it a valuable model for the study of other systems.

An old empty house was their home and in it they fashioned a comfortable life for themselves.
