Norman the Doorman (Picture Puffin Books)

From the author of perennial favorite Corduroy comes a charming tale of a marvelously talented mouse "Norman is a doorman. He is also a mouse. Most important of all, he is a sculptor, particularly gifted in his manipulation of mousetraps into mobiles. This story, set in a museum, boasts illustrations of rare charm and quality. And the world of art lovers, exhibit openings, and mousedom, portrayed in Don Freeman's delicious pastels, will enchant children and delight the most sophisticated of parents."-- Kirkus Reviews
