Do parents still read to their children at bedtime? Or do they take time during the day to snuggle together for a special story? Storytime can be a special bonding time for parent and child. The Adventures of Little Mouse is a collection of stories perfect for a parent or grandparent to share with their child, as they each are based upon lessons which Little Mouse has either learned from Daddy or Papaw Mouse. The stories are not moralistic, but characteristics such as politeness are natural parts of Little Mouse's being. In the "Mystery of Christmas," Little Mouse helps unravel the mystery of the holiday as he shares his home with Mary Mouse. And giving his most special toy to the baby is a result of discovering more of Christmas's real meaning. In the "Wild Wolf" tale, Little Mouse seeks the staff of the Wizard, in order to ward off danger and keep his family and friends safe. In the story of the "River Pirates," Little Mouse shows the need for quick thinking and wise choices in order to outsmart the evil pirates. In "The Shadow of the Hawk" Little mouse uses his bravery and the self-defense skills taught to him by his father as he accomplishes a difficult task and defends the small messenger bird from the deadly Hawk.

Ten stories from the ‘brilliant’ Katherine Mansfield on the theme of sex and lies. As Vincent O’Sullivan states, those encountering Mansfield’s stories for the first time have invariably found they ‘were alive, they were witty, they were moving, they covered new ground’. But with about 70 stories to choose from and a vast array of themes and approaches, where do you start, and how do you begin to understand and best appreciate her writing and achievements? This series features selections of her best stories, grouped by subject and introduced by Mansfield scholar Vincent O’Sullivan, who is also a writer of fiction in his own right. Each volume offers a different way to view Mansfield’s work. This selection includes her exploration of sex and lies, a favourite theme that she tackled in varied ways in her stories. As O'Sullivan explains, his choices cover ‘everything of importance that happened to her, that she observed and experienced, between childhood in Wellington’s wooden houses, to her deciding in Switzerland in July 1922, that her final paragraph about a singing bird was the place for her to stop’.
