I keep finding more things I didn't know existed when I visit the Children's section of the library. I loved [b:Corduroy|231850|Corduroy|Don Freeman|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1172940339s/231850.jpg|261903], of course, but imo this is even better! I love that the sculpture can, like all great art, be appreciated on different levels - is it a simple illustration? or irony? or even a bold socio-political statement? Freeman knew better than to talk down to children - preschoolers thru grandparents will find some refreshing ideas in this fable. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse

When he’s not busy guiding guests through the museum basement, Norman creates his own art in his home inside the visor of the knight’s armored helmet and keeps himself hidden from the upstairs guard who comes to the basement to set mouse traps.
One day, Norman learns of a contest for sculptors big and small and thinks about entering his tiny sculpture in the contest. Can Norman find a way to enter the contest without revealing himself to the upstairs guard? And if Norman’s sculpture wins the contest, will he get his secret wish?
Delightful pastels illustrate this enchanting tale of a mouse who is true to himself. Readers young and old will find much to appreciate in this charming tale from the author of “Corduroy.”
Highly recommended. ( )
