Mice Skating by Annie Silvestro
This charming picture book about a bold mouse named Lucy highlights the delights of winter and encourages more cautious readers to get out and try new things!
“Field mice are supposed to spend the winter burrowing and huddling underground, but little Lucy would rather be out in the bracing coldShe can’t convince her mouse friends to join her, until she finds a way to get them to follow her to the pond for ice skating. Silvestro’s simple story is heavy on cheese puns likely to sail past younger listeners, but White’s charming illustrations, with their miniaturist sensibility and cozy wood-toned textures, will have little ones hunting through the pages for details of the field-mouse lifestyle and décor.” —The New York TImes
