Mice skating - Annie Silvestro

A winter wonderland is twice as nice when you have friends to share it with.For most field mice, winter means burrowing down and snuggling in. But not for Lucy! She loves snow crunching under her paws and wearing a fluffy wool hat. But most of all, Lucy loves to skate and she is ACHING to share her new skill with her friends. The other mice just don't understand. After a disastrous indoor snowball fight, she finally succeeds at getting her three best pals outdoors to make snow angels and "mice skate" on the pond using the pine-needle skates she has made for them. Together they bloom like spring!With intricately detailed illustrations as cozy as a fireplace in December, this funny, punny, warmhearted love song to winter-and to one bold, generous mouse-will have kids bundling up to scoop some outdoor fun of their own.
