A do-nothing mouse doesn't lift a paw to help when Mother Goose is away at market day and Fox comes calling. Fox tricks his way into their home and carries off six of her seven goslings.
This is a singularly beautiful book. All the critters in their tiny, well adapted, bitty little dutch outfits! OH! I'm keeping it, nevermind the nephew. ALL MINE.
3.75 Stars The illustrations in the book are fun. Sort of an old English village. The story is the classic retelling of the story but it was still fun to read!
