Mouses in childrens books...

Hope you had a good weekend! Ours was relaxing and then busybusybusy!


Scanned from Autumn Story, Brambly Hedge by Jill Barklem.


I can't help it. It started around 1995. I blame Brambly Hedge for this malady.

Malady: I LOVE vintage books on mouses and their houses.

Cure: Collect them!

I wrote about my absolute treasure and favourite, House by Mouse (Also known as Need a house? Call Ms Mouse in the US) by George Mendoza. Discovered in 2007 at a Salvos for $1.99.



But here are others in my small collection:


Scanned from Teeny, Tiny Mouse by Laura Leuck.



Scanned from The Brown Mouse Book by Alison Uttley.



Scanned from The Rats Came Back by Ross Seidel.



Scanned from Peterkin Pollensnuff by Jenny Partridge.



Scanned from The Mice of Nibbling Village by Margaret Greaves.


What books do you collect?
