Cheer Up, Mouse | December 12, 2012

by Jed Henry (Houghton Mifflin Books for Children, Jan. 2013)

When you’re feeling down, friends can be the best cure. That’s the idea behind Cheer Up, Mouse! which features one of the cutest (and saddest) mice to star in a children’s book. Jed Henry’s animal characters try out all of their favorite antics to get their sad friend, Mouse, to smile again, with the chant-along refrain “Cheer up, Mouse!”. But nothing seems to do the trick. Henry uses watercolors to depict beautiful woodland landscapes and his personable characters. Cheer Up, Mouse! is out in January, just in time to combat the post-holiday doldrums.
