Time stops for no mouse is a really cool book. My parents both loved it to. The charaters are so well described I thought they could even be real.I can't wait until i read Michaels new book sands of time.I love his use of wierd names because it feals so funny saying such words.

Time Stops for No Mouse is a great book! I could not get my face out of the pages. I almost fell down the stairs and trip over my dog once. I like the plot about finding the youth formula and that Hermux is a watchmaker. The names in the book are a little hard to pronounce. Like Lanayda Prink.
Hermux really cares about people in ways you can't explain. He saw Linka Perflinger 1 time and he already wanted to save her. He did not even know she had been taken immediatly. He just thought she needed help. But one thing wasn't straight. It did not say why Mennus actually wanted the formula. He might have wanted revenge. Or he could have just wanted to live forever. I'm reading The Sands of Time now. It's turning out to be just as good. I hope that Mr. Hoeye makes another book.

I give the book "Time Stops for no mouse" a four out of five. The main charicter Hermux is an intresting and enjoyable charicter. Hermux is an ordinary mouse, perfectly content with fixing watches and talking with his pet ladybug.However, when he encounters Linka Perflinger, he is drawn some what unwillingly into an adventure that is far bigger than he first imagines. While the whole of the book was enjoyable, I found that some parts were rather boring, and I could still get the plot if I skipped over some of it. Also, it was hard to keep some of the names strait, and I had to keep looking back at the beggining of the book. But, after I got the hang of the names, I found it to be an intresting book. I recommened it to anyone who is determined enough to get past the hard to pronounce names to a great story.

I think that this bopok is a very exciting and action filled book! It shows that someone as small as a mouse can save a life!
Hermux to the rescue! But don't forget...no matter how small you may seem your heart never stops growing!

This was a great action/adventure novel that I will read again and again! It is a bout a very determined normal mouse who is swept into an adventure way over his novice detective head. I would definately recommend this book to everyone around. It was a great read and a wonderful first children's book for Micheal Hoey and I hope he writes more!!!

Time really doesn’t stop for this mouse, Hermux Tantamoque is a watchmaker who constantly fixes clocks and watches. But one day an elegant female mouse walks in and needs her watch desperately fixed. So Hermux starts on it immediately, alas, she never comes back for it so he goes to investigate what happened to her. He realises someone was following him so he stopped and went back to work. I would recommend this book for ages 11 and up but anyone can try it. Its rated: not too scary (check out the back of the book).
