Frederick


Frederick by Leo Lionni

Frederick the mouse preps for winter in an unusual way.

Mom's Review: Don't let the apparent simplicity of this book trick you; it is a complex tale! I love this book because of what it advocates: creativity. Frederick is an introspective little artist who helps his utilitarian friends embrace their imaginations. I don't think Abby has fully grasped the dimensions of this book, but I can tell she knows there's a message in there.

Daughter's Review: I like it because I LOVE mouses.
