By word of mouse
(Book)
Lucy is a curious and adventurous mouse who wants to live in a real house. At first Lucy only visits the house occasionally. Each time, the sisters who live there bring her back to the woods and tell her not to come back. But she doesn't understand why-after all, the sisters bake sugar lace cookies just for her (she thinks). And Lucy can tell they love animals. Surely the sisters will have to give in eventually . . .
When Kate Spohn was in high school, she tended the garden of Dorothy and Gertrude Lathrop (Dorothy received the first Caldecott Medal in 1938 for Animals of the Bible), witnessing firsthand the sisters' kindness toward animals and love of all living things. Kate has brought Lucy to life in this delightful picture book about a determined and charming mouse finding a home of her own.
