The Tale of Two Bad Mice

The Tale of Two Bad Mice


Price: £7.50

Quantity:

The story is about the exploits of two mice named Tom Thumb and Hunka Munka who break into a dollhouse, while its occupants are out for a walk. The two mice wreck havoc, smashing plaster plates of pretend food, upending dishes and shredding feather beds, before finally running back to their hole with a fair number of things from the house. In response the little girl who owns the dollhouse buys a policeman doll, while the nurse buys a mousetrap. In repentance for causing so much trouble Hunka Munka goes, each morning, into the dollhouse to clean it.

The Tailor of Gloucester in a special wrapper

£7.50

This book tells the story of a poor tailor, his cat, and the mice that live in his shop. He has many scraps of cloth and ribbons left over that are too small for any practical use. The mice take these and make fine clothes for themselves.

The tailor sends his cat Simpkin to buy food and a twist of cherry-coloured silk for a coat the mayor has commissioned for his wedding, which will take place on Christmas morning.

While the cat is gone, he frees the mice from teacups where Simpkin has imprisoned them. When Simpkin returns and finds his mice gone, he hides the twist in anger. When the tailor falls ill, the mice save the day by completing the coat.
