Little Mouse’s Christmas

Riikka Jäntti (trans. Lola Rogers)

‘Beautifully illustrated … put together with enormous charm. I rather want to be invited to Little Mouse’s Christmas.’

Alex O'Connell, The Times

Little Mouse has a long time to wait for Christmas! Luckily he has lots of things to do to get ready!

It’s almost Christmas and Little Mouse is looking forward to celebrating with Mummy Mouse and Grandpa and Grandma Mouse. But Christmas Eve feels very far away and Little Mouse is very impatient!

Fortunately there are all kinds of things for Little Mouse to do, like cooking gingerbread and choosing just the right Christmas tree.

The curious and lively toddler Little Mouse is back in this beautifully Scandinavian Christmas story by Finnish author/illustrator Riikka Jäntti.
