As a rhyming text tells of a mouse family's Christmas preparations (tree trimming, baking, caroling), watercolors not only show the mice full of holiday cheer, but also a furtive cat watching the festivities with interest. In a friendly twist on the usual cat and mouse tension, the cat's unexpected gift, a huge wedge of cheese, inspires the mice to give in kind. Overall, this is a slight offering. (c) Copyright 2010.

Previously published as a picture book, this beginning reader tells of a mouse family's Christmas preparations (tree trimming, baking, caroling). The rhyming text is suited to this format and is supported by lively illustrations of mice full of holiday cheer. A prowling cat adds a bit of tension; the unexpected ending offers a friendly twist on the usual cat-and-mouse dynamic. (c) Copyright 2014.
