Editorial Reviews

Review

Hazel the mouse goes to visit her mother, who is out visiting "her" mother, who is out visiting "her" mother, and so on until the last mouse encounters a menacing cat and all flee, meeting up with one another along the way. Delicate line drawings of Potteresque mice and woodland flora decorate this slight story, here reissued in a small, square gift edition. --Horn Book Guide

Six generations of female mice celebrate Mother's Mother's Day in a gifty, hand-sized volume. Hazel brings a bunch of violets to her mother, who is not home because she is delivering a gift to her own mother, also not at home. This continues until Great-Great-Grandmother finds an unfriendly cat instead of her own mother, sending all the mice scurrying into hiding together. Balians delicate, cozy illustrations ably capture the characters' emotions. --Publisher's Weekly

Product Description

It's Mother's Day -- a time for visits and gifts-- and a charming family of mice are planning to see their mothers.

Hazel and her mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and great-great-grandmother all go to see each other on this special day. But where is great-great-great grandmother?

5.0 out of 5 stars A sweet circular story of generations, June 23, 2000
By Jenny Sayward "jlsayward" (Shoreline, WA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Mother's Mother's Day (Hardcover)
When a mouse, Hazel, takes a small woodland Mother's Day gift to her mother, she finds the tree trunk vacant. Mother has gone to visit her mother ... and so and so on ... (Many mouse generations can coexist.) Finally, they all find each other for the celebration. Children learn that every mother has a mother and they all have names. They can live independently, but they love and watch out for each other.
