Buket Erdogan.
In this nearly wordless book, a talented mouse scampers around Miss Bumbly's house while she sleeps through the night. The nocturnal critter watches television and makes a pancake breakfast for Miss Bumbly before scurrying back into a mouse hole. Miss Bumbly's lack of reaction to the breakfast that greets her in the morning is somewhat odd. Fetching acrylic paintings on canvas give the illustrations a textured appearance.
