Is this a good friend?
No.
A tortoise just walks very slowly.
It's hard for mouse to find a friend.
(A bird, fish, and a frog appear to be the other options, as well as what your mom remembered! Good memory!)
I’ll ask her if this is the book! Thank you!
My mom believes this is the book!! Thank you so much
I've also seen other editions called "Mouse Looks for a House", with the same mouse on the cover, but a slightly different design, if it helps. ;)And there's a YouTube video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=des... - it seems that "Mouse Looks for a House" is just a shorter version of The Mouse Book. ;)
How do I change this to “SOLVED”? I don’t know how unfortunately. I’m on my phone
Pleasure!The mods can help. ;)
***She read this book when she was a child, she was 7 years old. The year was 1972
***The book was a picture book and she remembers one of the pictures being a cat when the mouse was looking for a new house.
***She thinks she’s wrong but she believes the mouse was white.
***Each time he went to a new potential home he would ask “Is this a good house?”
***When he got to a new house, he was meeting up with animals and saying “Is this a good friend?”
***She only remembers the animals (potential friends) in the book being a cat, a tortoise and another mouse. They’re were more animals, but those or the only 3 she remembers
***The mouse didn’t want the tortoise as a friend because he “walks too slow”
She doesn’t remember the cover at all. She thinks one of her playmates when she was a child ripped it off.
***At the end of the book, the mouse found the good house and a good friend. The friend was another mouse
