This book is amazing! It was one of my favorites as a child and now that I have a son, I can't wait to share it with him. I have a copy and was hoping to get another one. I started looking for a copy and man they are expensive. Anyone out there have connections to the publisher? It needs to be reprinted so a new generation can enjoy it. The artwork is phenomenal! It is great for animal lovers, designers and architecture buffs. Writing this brigs back memories of sitting for hours pouring over ea More...

This book was a favorite of my sons and my grandsons are just the right age for it. Ms. Mouse designs beautiful homes for each of the forest's inhabitants and each full-page spread is full of intricate detail. The boys love the houses for spider, worm and lizard but my preference is fox's house. All those comfy reading chairs and and a great kitchen too!

My ALL TIME FAVORITE book as a child. I've lost it since and now it is $175-$300 for a used copy. If only the publisher would re-print it!! Or maybe I can get a sugar daddy to buy it for me.....a girl can always dream ;)

Everything I know and like about architecture I owe to this book about a rodent Frank Lloyd Wright and her various clients. To this day, my sisters and I will spot a nice vacation home nestled on the side of a mountain and remark on how it looks like a Ms. Mouse house.

Best childhood book ever with great illustrations! It gave me a love for unusual arcitecture and landscape at an early age, plus it helped foster that whole imagination thing. It needs to be reprinted so more people can enjoy it.
