Paper Mice

A Bank Street Best Book of the Year

Perfect for storytime, and with so much to explore on each page, a one-on-one read is also a must. -School Library Journal

A sweet depiction of companionship and creature comforts. -Publishers Weekly

It’s the middle of the night, and two paper mice find adventure-and each other-as they explore their new home in this beautifully written, stunningly illustrated story of friendship.

With a snip and a clip, two paper mice are made. They are given names: Della and Ralph. Each alone, they explore their new house in the dark. Della dashes up the stairs; Ralph skitters through the dining room. There is so much to see and so much to discover!

But a big, dark house can be scary for those so small, until they find…each other.

Beautiful, cut-paper illustrations bring to life this lyrical story of adventure and friendship.
