This & That

Written by Mem Fox, Illustrated by Judy Horacek

Stories are a wonderful part of bedtime. In Mem Fox’s new book, the narrator mouse spins a funny and delightful tale of “this and that” to a little mouse. The tale takes them through cavernous caves, running down a road, a busy marketplace and over palace walls. They meet monkeys, elephants, giraffes and royalty before arriving safely home. Whimsical and colorful illustrations weave into this fantastical tale and capture the joyful flight into fantasy, ending in a tender bedtime moment. This book is a sweet, rhyming story that is just perfect for a bedtime read aloud and for developing sequencing skills too.
