- Abstract
- en_US Sixteen heavy pages fully illustrated in color. 10" x 10¾". Here the "dear little mouse" in the country does not have many friends. His well-dressed cousin from town reacts negatively immediately and, apparently without further ado, they take off for the town. The visual artist here does present a town rather than a city. A male cook intrudes suddenly with a broom, a thud, and a swoosh. Later a dog chases them back to the same hole. In an unusual turn for this story, the country mouse then asks if this is not his cousin's home. "Is this not your food?" The town cousin answers "Oh, come now! It doesn't matter if the house and food are not mine." The last image has the country mouse lying out in the country. "There is no place like home, sweet home." Originally printed in 2013.
