You can never have too many good bedtime books for young children (ages 4-7). Two books that my son Liam and I enjoyed recently are Little Mouse, I Love You and Good Night, Little Mouse. Written by Dugald Steer, illustrated by Caroline Anstey and published by Scholastic Canada Ltd., these stories deal with the subjects of love and noises in the night. In Good Night Little Mouse, Little Mouse's Grandpa comforts her at bedtime by showing her those who were responsible for making the various noises that she hears. By showing Little Mouse an owl, a fox, an otter and some badgers who are going about their night time activities, Grandpa helps Little Mouse to overcome her fears. Little Mouse, I Love You sees Little Mouse's "Gran" answering her granddaughter's question "What is love?" Gran answers the question by taking Little Mouse on a walk and showing her various animals who are caring for their young. Gran shows Little Mouse a mother wren teaching her chicks to fly, a mother squirrel sharing acorns with her children, a mother rabbit care for her injured child and a mother sheep who comforts her frightened lamb. All of these compassionate acts are displays of love. When evening comes Gran and Little Mouse return home where Little Mouse reflects on what she saw that day before going to bed. Children will enjoy the subtle lessons of these stories which features nature and animals. The colorful, beautiful embossed illustrations and the flocked covers make these attractive books wonderful keepsakes. --N. Glenn Perrett
