A kindhearted mouse becomes Santa's littlest helper in this heartfelt, joyful story that's a true Christmas classic. Sometimes giving is the best gift of all. In this charming holiday story, meet a tiny mouse with no name who is blessed with a large imagination and a generous spirit. He lives a very lonely life in a very big house. Yet he dearly loves Christmas and one Christmas Eve he surprises Santa Claus with a most unusual present. How does this small mouse with a big heart become Santa's special helper? Written by Michael Brown and illustrated in a timeless style by Elfrieda De Witt, Santa Mouse is a Christmas family favorite that parents and grandparents are sure to share with their little ones.About The Author
The idea for writing the Santa Mouse stories came to Michael Brown while holding piece of children's pajama fabric featuring a tiny Christmas mouse. He went to work creating the character that was to become Santa's little helper. In addition to writing stories about Santa Mouse, Michael Brown performed his own songs in cabaret and was a composer/lyricist and producer/director in the theater. When introduced to her art, Michael Brown immediately knew that Elfrieda De Witt would be the perfect choice of collaborator for his Santa Mouse stories. Her style perfectly captured the spirit of Christmas. Known affectionately as "Freddie" by friends and family, Elfrieda spent much of her career illustrating for greeting card companies. Brown and De Witt continued their friendship for many years after the publication of the Santa Mouse books.Dimensions (Overall): 11.4 Inches (H) x 9.1 Inch (W) x .4 Inch (D)

This is the cutest Christmas book! I was so worried it would go out of print. Just bought 2 additional copies for my 2 adult children because they will definitely be carrying on the tradition of leaving a piece of cheese out for Santa Mouse on Christmas Eve with their families. Just received them, and it's a beautiful hardcover large book with great illustrations! You can't beat this price! The cost listed on the book is $17.99! Be sure to also get the sequel, "Santa Mouse, Where Are You?" because it adds to the story ... when leaving cheese for Santa Mouse, he may leave you a little gift in your Christmas tree. You will know it's from him because it will be tied with a yellow ribbon. My kids loved searching for the little gifts to them from Santa Mouse on Christmas morning!
LOVE this book!!

I absolutely LOVE this book!!! It has been one of my favorites my entire life. Our Mom read it to us every Christmas (and multiple times throughout the year) growing up, because it was HER favorite book when she was growing up! And now I can read it to my kids as they grow up! I'm so happy this book is back in print!!! I can't recommend it enough!
