This is a lovely retelling of The Town Mouse and the Country Mouse that emphasises the message of the story with idyllic countryside illustrations by Rene Cloke. For a description of the retelling and the accompanying illustrations, see my review on my vintage picture book blog, Silver Bells and Cockle Shells.
