This was an incredibly hilarious read! Poor Mrs. Mouse just wants a house of her own, and they keep getting walked off with! I could not BELIEVE the audacity of the other animals trying to bust down her doors, and letting themselves in to eat all her pastries! I laugh, I gasped, I would absolutely get this for my collection!

Super cute. I'm a sucker for a mouse story, every time. :)

Different house dining the best house and this is a shorter book with a lot of works so giving kids more words pre page to read

This was another find among my stepdaughter's old picture books. I had Richard Scarry's Mother Goose and Word Book as a child so it's interesting to see a book with an actual plot from him!

Whiskers and Friskers are two mice who live in a sock. One day they leave and when they come back, a cat has stolen their house. They set up in a pocketbook, but that is stolen by a duck and then a muff, but that is stolen by a dog. Finally, they find a dollhouse that is perfect and they have to defend it from other animals who also want to live there.
