Book Synopsis
The late, great Norman Bridwell, creator of Clifford the Big Red Dog, wrote in a handwritten letter to author Elar Ericsson after reading Jimey the Woodpile Mouse, "Dear Elar, Thank you for the book. You have a very unique art style. I like it very much. Being a mouse fan myself I appreciate the story." He continued, "I hope your books are successful. There is something special about making a child smile."
Jimey (j-eye-mee) was a woodpile mouse. He lived in the woodpile outside of Farmer Karson's farmhouse. Jimey loved his woodpile. But there was one big problem. Jimey's woodpile was quickly shrinking! Every day the Farmer took logs from the woodpile, and now there were only a few logs left. Jimey worried that his woodpile would soon be gone! Where would he live? How would he stay warm and dry? But one thing worried Jimey most of all-how would he stay safe from the Farmer's cat, Kloee?
This debut story from author and illustrator Elar Ericsson gently addresses fear and worry with the comfort of being protected, loved, and cared for. The simple message easily translates to children and adults alike.
