Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:From the author of the "Frances and the Badger" series comes this story, first printed in 1967. It is considered to be one of the great works of children's literature in the 20th century and is available again in an updated format with new illustrations. Review:"Since its publication in 1967, book lovers have lauded Russell Hoban's The Mouse and His Child. Now 2001 Caldecott Medalist David Small's haunting charcoal-and-ink illustrations energize and elevate this moving tale of two toy mice that come to life." Publishers Weekly Review:"Gr. 4-up. First published in 1967 with illustrations by Lillian Hoban, this unusual book has had a small but devoted following, including many adults, who respond to its philosophical underpinnings and understated style.... [David Small's] dynamic yet sensitive black-and-white artwork will appeal to adults and children alike. The illustrations' economy of line, grace of expression, and underlying wit reflect the spirit and subtlety of the text." Carolyn Phelan, Booklist Review:"Whimsy and Swiftian satire abound in this high-spirited adventure novel. Ages 8 up."
