内容简介
'Look, my dear, we have our very own Christmas tree,' said Mr. Mouse. 'And the very biggest!' said Mrs. Mouse. Hundreds of people looked back up at the tree, while the mice watched the skaters below. They were country mice. The tree was their home. Now, they found themselves in the heart of New York City, Rockefeller Center. When Mr. and Mrs. Mouse's tree is chosen to be the very special Rockefeller Center Christmas tree, the two little country mice find themselves in the bustling world of great big New York City. There they experience all of the wonder of their lively new home, go ice-skating at Rockefeller Center, window-shopping at FAO Schwarz, eat pretzels and chestnuts, hitch a ride on a horse-drawn carriage in Central Park-they do it all! And then they receive the most precious gift of all. . .a family. Loretta Krupinski is the illustrator of many cherished books for children, including Margaret Wise Brown's My World of Color and Mouse of My Heart: A Treasury of Sense and Nonsense.

From Publishers Weekly
Start spreading the news, Christmas done New York, New York-style dazzles two country mice. When the pine tree they call home is selected to adorn Rockefeller Center, Mr. and Mrs. Mouse get the chance to explore the Big Apple. Framed by snazzy holiday-motif borders, Krupinski's (A Visit from St. Nicholas) paintings light up a smattering of Manhattan sights. The mice-capades, which involve Mrs. Mouse's giving birth in a churchyard creche, grow a little formulaic, but Gotham enthusiasts are likely to enjoy this view of the city at its holiday best. Ages 4-8.

Kindergarten-Grade 2-Mr. and Mrs. Mouse find themselves in New York City when the huge tree in which they live is transported to Rockefeller Center. The country couple ventures out every evening to explore the sights until Mrs. Mouse gives birth on Christmas Eve in, yes, a churchyard manger-surrounded by angel mice. Decorated borders frame scenes of domestic life, including the infants being bottle-fed. When their tree comes down after the holidays, it is returned to the countryside, and the little creatures take up residence in a barn. A sweet family story about Christmas in Manhattan.-S. P.
