Biographie de l'auteur

Susan Pearson is a former publisher whose books for children include picture books, chapter books, mysteries, and collections of verse. She describes herself as "lucky" to be doing what she loves, "a detective" always in search of the right word or idea, and "a gardener" who likes to grow things both in the dirt and on the page (and where she often finds book-inspiring slugs). Slugs in Love and How to Teach a Slug to Read are among her recent books. Ms. Pearson shares her home with an "endlessly entertaining" cat named Archie.

Amanda Shepherd knew she would be an artist back in kindergarten and has since illustrated five children's books, and earned starred reviews. Originally from the Pacific Northwest, she lives in Texas with her husband Garbo and Polly, their "hurricane baby cat." 

Présentation de l'éditeur

It's two full stories in one charming mouse-filled book! With assistance from her animal friends--some helpful, some not-so-much--Mouse puts together the structure and furnishings of her nice little house. Her snug home has everything she needs, or so she thinks. In the next story, one night she hears scary noises and sets out to trap the intruding "ghost"--only to discover that a hungry, homeless mouse has been hiding in her nice little house! Mack offers to do all sorts of chores in return for a roof over his head. Mouse accepts his offer and his company, and now her nice little house truly becomes a home.
