Isn't it Ironic?

Today in the public library I picked up a book, The Society of Timid Souls or How To Be Brave by Polly Morland.

And what is on the front cover?

 

A mouse.  I don't do mice.  Or rats.  In fact, that's my biggest fear.

Hopefully, by the time I finish the book, I'll be able to look at the front cover without freaking out.
