Mouse and Mole Have a Party
Illustrated by James Mayhew
Three more stories about Mouse and Mole which highlight qualities of fine friendship. There's a lovely excitement when the first daffodil of Spring appears and true kindness in Mouse's concern to shield his friend from avoidable upset. Again, calm, sensible Mouse balances Mole's hypersensitivity and acts as a buffer to the consequences of his endearing, but nonetheless impulsive, child-like tendencies in 'Whiskers'. He shows special thoughtfulness in dispelling Mole's high birthday expectations to ensure no disappointment. Delightful tales and suitably warm illustrations make this an attractive book for accomplished reading or listening.
