The Tales of Mindy Mousekins (Autumn – Winter)
How can a warm, nurturing, lovable mouse save the world?
One sweet story at a time.
Actually, Mindy Mousekins doesn’t know that’s her mission in life. She simply goes about her business, touching others with her every day adventures in the forest. Like all of us, she learns about her world through trial and error. She confronts her fear when a scary, scratchy sound keeps her up at night. And, a chance encounter with Jack Frost makes her appreciate the beauty and wonder of frosty window panes. She stretches for the juiciest out-of-reach blackberry, and when she takes a tumble, she makes the best of it with humor and joy. While gentle, these stories also speak to the many conflicts that young children commonly encounter.

Stories on tape don’t get any better than this. Calming and delightful for toddlers and big kids. Seasons-based & magical. Includes the Easter bunny, Jack Frost & fairies – I would not say the stories are religious. We have tried others and have found nothing that compares!
