The Online Bookshelf - The Mouse's Wedding


Another little Edwardian oddity, full of beautiful colored illustrations of mice in kimonos. Free download from Project Gutenberg.

  1. Beautiful! I love children's stories like this that gently lead them to understand and pique their curiosity about other cultures without being all preachy about it. Thanks for finding this one. It's delightful.

  2. That is nice! When I was in my teens, I was DREADFULLY shy, and my nickname was "The Mouse", so I am partial to them even in my dotage. (I'm still Aunt Mouse to a the children of old, old friends.)
