☆Marcel goes to HOLLYWOOD


I read "Marcel goes to HOLLYWOOD". It is like a cartoon so it is very easy to read.

I think it is funny story because main character is mouse!
Marcel is a detective mouse. Celine is his girl friend and she is a painter. They are French mice.
They go to Los Angeles, CA, USA on their summer holiday. Their flat is a small hole in the Waldmans house. Arnold W. is a film director and his wife, Claudia is Italy and their daughter, Lois is 15 years old. The Waldmans are human, of course:)

I think Marcel is a brave and clever mouse!!
One night, Lois is taken to somewhere by kidnappers. Marcel watches that and he wants to help her. The kidnappers telephone Arnold to come the place they are and to bring $1 million, so Marcel and Celine go there with him. He meets the kidnappers but they don't take Lois to there, so the mice stay there with kidnappers. Then they move to a place and there is Lois. After they slept, the mice get their guns and Marcel telephones the police in the bathroom.
"Hello? Police? I don't know the address. There are two kidnappers here. They have a young girl. Her name's Lois Waldman. W-A-L-D-M-A-N."
The police come soon and the kidnappers are arrested. Then the police help Lois and they ask her.
"A child telephoned. Do you know him?" "No, I don't."
she answers.

The police think Marcel is a child because his voice is small and high, I think. Marcel is clever because he gets kidnappers' guns at first in order not to shot them, and he telephones in the bathroom because he knows how small his voice is. By the way, I'm surprised that Marcel can speak English or human's language:o

Finally, the mice watch Lois comes back to her parents. Then the mice swim in the Waldman's pool.
"Happy, Celine?" "Very happy, Marcel." Of course they are happy. It's hot... The sky is blue... And they are in Hollywood!
