Publisher's Synopsis
A read-aloud holiday story for preschool and early grades. First written in 1971 for the author's children, A Mouse Tale for Christmas is now presented with a new face. When Pinky Mouse disobeys his parents and sneaks out of their attic home to learn the meaning of Christmas, he finds himself in danger from Tiger the cat and a mean-looking mousetrap! And when he asks the cuckoo clock about Christmas, a little bird pops out and chirps, ""Cuckoo-cuckoo!"" Oh dear! If the cuckoo bird doesn't know and the cat only wants to eat him, how will he ever find out about Christmas? Primary and middle-grade fiction.
