Classic book

We lived in Finland in the early 1970's and we had this book in finnish. The kids loved it. It's beautifully illustrated and written in a charming whimsical manner. We have been looking for this book in english for years. It was worth it.

Runaway rollerskate

While this book is out of print, if you are able to find a copy, BUY IT!! My mom read this to me when I was little and I spent quite a few years looking for a copy when we lost ours. Children will love the sneaky mouse that rides all over the world in a nervous man's rollerskate. The pictures are cute, and will keep their attention.
