When Posey Peeked at Christmas

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Anne Kennedy. Christmas in the mouse hole brings a story from Grandma about the year young Posey's curiosity ran rampant. After enduring a night of guilt and remorse, Posey (a.k.a. Grandma as a girl) concludes it's better to wait for presents. The text is message-y but offers some surprises. Kennedy's light-filled watercolor and ink illustrations show human-size objects humorously converted for mouse use.
