Between courage and curiosity lies the journey of a lifetime.
For ages and ages, all was well in the Chokmahdon Kingdom, without any creature minding that a mirror could not be found. All but one, that is: Princess Journee.
Princess Journee is no ordinary mouse. As the spirited daughter of the Great Mouse King, she lives in her father's glorious kingdom-yet her heart is full of questions. Most of all, she wonders: Who am I, really? Determined to find the answer, Journee sets out beyond the castle gates on a daring quest with her father's loyal steed by her side.
The adventure takes an interesting turn when she befriends two very unlikely companions: a sensitive toad and a wise owl who tell her about a mysterious and legendary Pond of Reflection, known to reveal one's true identity.
Their search for the pond becomes perilous as, together, they face death-defying challenges, strange happenings in the WHOAMI forest, and rapturous moments of wonder that will test their courage, friendship-and lead them closer to the truth.
Sometimes the bravest journey is the one that leads you home-to yourself.
