Need a House? Call Ms. Mouse!
by George Mendoza and Doris Susan Smith
Kids' Book of the Week , July 10, 2023
First published in 1981, Need a House? Call Ms. Mouse! was recently re-released for a new generation by the New York Review Children's Collection. The animals flock to architect Ms. Mouse because she knows how to design a home that will suit each of their unique needs. For instance, Cat wants a house with plenty of places to nap, while Rabbit needs room to store his harvest. What would suit Lizard better than a rooftop solarium where he can bask in the sun? Then it's on to designing a recording studio for Spider and an astronomy tower for Owl. Anyone who loves a detailed cross section illustration of a cozy home will need to add this charming classic to their collection. (Ages 1 to 6)
