Winter setting, with a mouse holding a sign reading "bleak". Maybe an owl character somewhere?

Yes, it's a picture book but not any of those listed on Amazon. All I can confidently recall is the little mouse holding a placard-type sign and that he has to go on some sort of trek while avoiding being hunted by an owl. I think.
