Please sign in so that we can notify you about a reply
In the Forest thicket right behind Rabbit's burrow and not far from Owl's hollow, live the balanced, gentle, and sensible mouse Smysh and the impulsive, whimsical, selfish, but endearingly childlike mole Roy. In six short stories, they start their friendship from scratch, run away from lightning that strikes like thunder out of a clear sky, spend the evening with a good book. Smysh helps Roy buy the boat of his dreams, and Roy tries to remember the secret of happiness he saw in a dream to share it with Smysh. Together, they have breakfast, take walks, drink fragrant tea with berry pudding with friends, hum songs of their own composition, and simply enjoy life!
The charming stories of the inseparable friends Smysh and Roy were written by British author Joyce Dunbar. And the wonderful British artist James Mayhew, who was so taken with this cute pair that he filled their world with things and objects from his own life, illustrated them.
"Smysh and Roy. Little Joys" continue the traditions of English children's literature. The funny dialogues, actions, and relationships of the characters, and, most importantly, the tenderness and kindness that literally permeate every line, allow this book to be compared with such classic works as "The Wind in the Willows" by Kenneth Grahame and "Winnie-the-Pooh" by A.A. Milne. Adults will undoubtedly appreciate the subtle English humor, and children will definitely love these lively and vivid characters.
A wonderful read for children from 4 to 6 years old.
