Reviews
'I found The Adventures of Scoochie Mouse a pleasant book to read, full of kindness and gentle moral insights; it left me with a warm feeling and I believe children of all ages would enjoy reading it, or having it read to them. Its underlying theme is one of showing respect for the eart and for each other -- a valuable message for today.'
