In this beautifully illustrated book, Raquel Daz Reguera evocatively addresses the delicate themes of control and possessiveness, creating awareness of what is acceptable and what is not.

When Mousy moves in with Buck, she finds their life isn't quite like she thought it would be... Buck seems to want to control everything she does. He starts asking her strange questions: ""Isn't it a little late for you to be getting home?"", ""Are you hiding something from me?"", ""Wear this

don't you want to look pretty for me?"".

As time goes on, Buck becomes more possesive and, while Mousy seems to shrink, Buck seems to be transforming from a mouse to a cat. Mousy must find the courage to escape the burrow.

Reviews for I Am Mine Alone

The pictures are both essential to the story’s impact and a potential barrier to an older readership, but many older children, teens, and even some adults who have encountered similar situations will find it an affirming balm.  The courageous heroine and titular mantra will resonate with those who recognize the dynamic.  – Kirkus This will serve as important discussion material between young girls and adults who oversee their growth. – Midwest Book Review - Children's Bookwatch
