Norman, an artistically-minded mouse, loves to show his friends all the treasures hidden in the basement of the Majestic Museum of Art. One day Norman decides to make a sculpture out of the mousetraps that the sharp-eyed guard leaves. He enters the “mouse on the flying trapezee” into a sculpture contest the museum is having, and much to his surprise, wins first place!
I love this book. It ends so well, and Norman is such a decent little mouse—and his wire sculpture is really fun.

Young “Moppy” doesn’t want to get a haircut, but is sent against his will to the barber shop by himself. What will convince him to get a haircut?
Mop Top is yet another delightful book from Don Freeman. Everything works out well, with a quite funny turn-around before the end. Some picture books are more fun for the adults reading aloud than for children, but here, everything is equally enjoyable by all ages. The pictures are fun, too.

Will’s Quill (Hardcover)
by Don Freeman
ISBN: 0670036862
Price: USD 13.25
23 used & new available from USD 0.10
Willoughby Waddle is a goose who lives in old England. One day, tired of doing the same things all the time, he decides to go to London. After having several bad, sometimes frightening, experiences, Willowby meets up with a kind man. Later that night, Willoughby is able to repay the man for his kindness in a way only a goose could.
Will’s Quill is a great book to enjoy on your own or to read aloud to someone else. I think that my favorite part has to be when Willoughby tries to “rescue” his friend. The results are quite funny. If you enjoy Will’s Quill, you should check out some of Don Freeman’s other books, several of which are still in print.
