I have been looking for books that I owned and loved as a child. I only have a few of the originals and I feel terrible that I didn't keep them all now that I have a brand new nephew. Thanks to Amazon.com I've been re-building my collection. This book "Christmas Mice" brings up lovely memories of two of my favorite subjects Christmas time and animals. The pictures are sweetly drawn by Richard Scarry who illustrated many books during the sixties that I was very fond of. His depictions of mice and bunnies are precious and heartwarming. And the story is nice too because Santa Claus doesn't forget even the tiniest of mice at Christmas time. I hope that my nephew will develop a love for art, family traditions and animals that will be influenced by this book.

One of those books that was a holiday favorite of both my children and myself. A simple and appealing story perfect for the 2 to 5 age group it remained popular with my kids for some time after that because of it's unique charm - not the least of which is Richard Scarry's wonderful illustrations.

Fans of Richard Scary's wonderful children's books will adore Christmas Mice, and old favorite brought back for a newer generation to enjoy.

A sweet story and lovely illustrations bring the story to life.
