Synopsis
Product Description When the town mouse and the country mouse visit each other, they find they prefer very different ways of life From School Library Journal Grade 1-3?A fast-paced, yet poetic retelling of the well-loved fable, enhanced with Hannon's charming illustrations. This version features two female cousins, both of whom learn the lesson "there's no place like home." The full-bled artwork depicts the anthropomorphized mice (life-sized on some pages) in sun or hearth-lit scenes. The print is large and easy on the eyes. Unfortunately, some of the brilliant color and sharp details of the cover illustration are lost on the interior pictures where the printing is dulled by inferior paper quality. Nonetheless, this is a fine choice for beginning readers whether or not they are familiar with the story.?Gale W. Sherman, Pocatello Public Library, IDCopyright 1995 Reed Business Information, Inc.
