A Bank Street Best Book of the Year "Perfect for storytime, and with so much to explore on each page, a one-on-one read is also a must." --School Library Journal "A sweet depiction of companionship and creature comforts." --Publishers Weekly It's the middle of the night, and two paper mice find adventure--and each other--as they explore their new home in this beautifully written, stunningly illustrated story of friendship. With a
snip and a
clip, two paper mice are made. They are given names: Della and Ralph. Each alone, they explore their new house in the dark. Della dashes up the stairs; Ralph skitters through the dining room. There is so much to see and so much to discover!
But a big, dark house can be scary for those so small, until they find...each other.
Beautiful, cut-paper illustrations bring to life this lyrical story of adventure and friendship.
