Little Mouse has one favourite word: No!

If Mummy Mouse says it’s time to get dressed, Little Mouse shouts ‘No!’ If Mummy Mouse wants him to hurry on their way to childcare, Little Mouse just wants to jump in puddles. At dinner time he loves his sausages, but it’s a big no to broccoli.

And you can imagine the kerfuffle when Mummy Mouse wants him to clean his teeth.

This little picture book with its warmth and humour tells the story of a day in the life of Little Mouse – not unlike the everyday life of parents and toddlers.

With beautiful vintage-style illustrations, it reminds me of what picture books used to be like. Ageless.
