The Tale of Two Mice by Ruth Brown

thewinnielife's review

I loved the fun interactive flaps inside the book and I was scared right along with Billy!

This pop up book has nice moody illustrations to flesh out the story of two scavenging mice being quietly followed by a predatory cat.

Fun because it had flaps to lift, so interactive though not a pop-up, and the drawings and flaps were good, but the story was eh. Why doesn't Billy say he's afraid of a cat rather than a spooky shadow? Is the house abandoned, or is it illustrated as furnished but empty of people just because that makes a prettier picture, and if the former why does it have such spreads of food?

Maybe the illustrations aren't that good anyway: the kids thought the cat was a dog, and this was a Persian (or other flat-faced variety of) cat.
