Rating: Summary: Even a bicycle riding French mouse can make a difference!! Review: Excellent book for kids!!...I had never heard of this author or title prior to today. The main character of the book is a Parisian mouse named Anatole. He is a bicycle riding mouse who is always in search of food for his very large family. After he discoveres that humans don't like it when mice dig through their trash, he develops a plan to make his talents helpful for people. His efforts pay off and he becomes a hero to his family of mice and to the humans who benefit from his efforts.Even the youngest of children will understand the themes of this book. Children who may see themselves as insignificant in a busy household will learn great lessons from Anatole. Anatole is a Caldecott Honor Book. Even though this book is currently out of print, it should be searched for at your local library. Nevertheless I will look for other books from Eve Tutus. Vive Anatole!!

Rating: Summary: My Favorite Children's Book! Review: I am past 50 years old now, and have read thousands of books, but one of my very favorites is Eve Titus's "Anatole". I even still have the actual book that I read all those years ago.It's in great shape and the illustrations by Paul Galdone are perfect and very "French". You should buy a couple of good cheeses and introduce them to your child after you read Anatole to them, or if they read it themselves. and they will remember that with loving fondness for the rest of their lives. Whoever reads this magical book will soon be starving for cheese! After all those years, I can still see the little French mouse and his comrades in my mind, bicycling into Paris late at night for their cheese run. Everything about this book is positive and upbeat and a wonderful influnce on children of all ages. I still love Anatole and read it often. I highly recommend it.
