Knowing that his mouse is now living at school makes first grade more appealing to a six-year-old. No library descriptions found. |

Published in 1977, The School Mouse is a book I sought out for the illustrations, as I am currently exploring the work of illustrator Chris Conover. I didn't realize that it was the second story about these character, and that the first - the aforementioned The House Mouse - was illustrated by Barbara Cooney. I will definitely have to seek out that earlier book, as well as the third title, The School Mouse and the Hamster. The story here was engaging, sensitively exploring a first grader's mixed feelings about starting school. The adventure with the mouse allows Jonathan to make friends and feel more comfortable in his new environment. As expected, the artwork is lovely, alternating between two-page spreads with black-and-white illustrations, and spreads with color illustrations. This is very text-heavy for a picture-book, so I'd recommend it to older picture-book audiences, particularly those feeling ambivalent about going to school for the first time. ( )
