Not one of my favorites of Kate DiCamillo. Still cute though.

Purchased a copy for a child and realized some readers were concerned about the content and I needed to check it out. I found that this quirky fairytale reminds children that the world can be difficult and silly, but that all are searching and fighting for their heart‘s desire. Read and discuss together. This tale of an unlikely hero fighting fear and rats to save a princess is a four ⭐️ read.

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.

This was a sweet little book and just what i needed. A little bit like A Man Called Ove but a shorter, simpler read. I seem to be reading a lot of books about elderly people finding connections!

Cute read!

A portrait of loneliness & the power of connection. I loved this story of an English woman who returns to the UK after 60 years in Australia. Her path crosses w/a little mouse & unexpected connections follow. It reminds me of an even lovelier Man Called Ove. It was a reminder to look deeper than 1st impressions. It‘s one I‘d love to reread in the future. “The pleasantness of Sunday has come apart and lies in pieces at the feet of Monday.”
