From Booklist
PreS-Gr. 2. On Christmas Eve, two mice prepare for the holiday in their separate burrows. Annamouse puts up her tree, but she has no decorations. Willamouse makes a paper chain, but she doesn't have a tree to put it on. The two mice start to leave their homes to collect the missing Christmas items, but a deep snow keeps them indoors. Each settles into a homey, solitary evening, until Willamouse overhears Annamouse's lovely violin music (composed by Mouzart), digs through her dirt wall in search of the sound, and meets her neighbor for the first time. After combining tree and decorations in their new double parlors, the joyful mice spend a cozy Christmas together. The richly descriptive language adds just the right amount of suspense as Willamouse searches for the mysterious music's source, and Roth's pencil-and-paint illustrations create delightfully expressive mouse characters and communicate the sense of warmth in detailed scenes of cushioned, snug interiors, complete with roaring fires and delectable treats. A charming tale about the season's comforts and the joy of finding a new friend. Gillian Engberg
