Overview

This story is based on facts from Henry David Thoreau's book Walden (first published in 1854) and his Journal. It follows his life at Walden Pond step by step in the building of his house and through the months he spent recording his thoughts. In Walden, in the chapter titled Brute Neighbors while building his house, Thoreau mentioned a mouse who became friendly with him just after he had laid down the first layer of floor boards. In Little Mouse ten of Thoreau's interesting statements are woven into the story, then translated into Mouse Talk for young readers to understand. It is my hope that this book will inspire children (and you to) to read Walden one of the great masterpieces of American Literature.

Little Mouse was the best book we read so far and it will probably stay the way. Andren At first I thought Henry David Thoreau was fiction, but when I read the book, I learned that he was real. Danny I really liked the book, Little Mouse. I would give it four stars. I thought it was really funny because Little Mouse, had a good sense of humor. I also learned that if you care about animals, they will do the same to you. Brendan
