Welcome to Litsy!

Twenty minutes of pure pleasure. #ChildrensClassicChallenge @TheBookHippie

Just soooo sweet! I want to read this to every child I know! Another winner from @TheBookHippie ‘s #ChildrensClassicRead .

Thanks to @TheBookHippie and #ChildrensClassicRead2025 for reminding me that I had this sweet (tagged) book waiting on my shelves. And, as others have mentioned, the illustrations are gorgeous!

I always pick up these New York Review Children‘s Collection editions when I spot them in used bookshops.

I enjoyed this sweet little story of Mary and her mouse house but mostly I enjoyed the illustrations, they felt very nostalgic for my childhood reading days.

Such a cute book with adorable illustrations! 🐭 🏡
I finally read an archive book that @TheBookHippie shared the link of.
It‘s much easier to read on my computer than my phone. 🤩
I love the library card 🩵
Juniata College Library is now named L A Beeghly Library & Juniata College was founded in 1876 by members of the Church of the Brethren.

Just finished this one. A charming story of a lonely older woman who "adopts" a mouse, and the odd connections that are made due to his presence. A quick read, and some of the writing is beautiful. Recommended.
