Mouse and His Child (Hoban Russell)(Paperback) - diskuze

Funny, thought-provoking and moving, this much loved story is a true classic.''What are we, Papa?'' the toy mouse child asked his father. ''I don''t know,'' the father answered. ''We must wait and see.''So begins the story of a tin father and son who dance under a Christmas tree until they break the ancient clockwork rules and are themselves broken. Thrown away, then rescued from a dustbin and repaired by a tramp, they set out on a dangerous quest for a family and a place of their own - the magnificent doll''s house, the plush elephant and the tin seal they had once know in the toy shop.‘Hugely funny, provocative, pathetic and heroic.’ TLS‘Brilliantly plotted . . . a spellbinder . . . it has a style that glows and crackles.’ Spectator
