We love the book. Love the illustrations. Just have one note.
Okay.
The mouse’s home, well — The dormouse collects trash.
Right. The little spool with a fan of hairpins. Cute chair, right?
That, and the peeled open sardine can bed, the comb love seat…

It’s an ecological disaster out there. Not a good message for the kids.
It’s supposed to be cute.
What if the trash isn’t cute. It’s a threat.
The barn owl is the threat.
What if instead of the owl, the dormouse is attacked by, say, a plastic bag…?
