Little Mouse learns a hard lesson when he borrows money from a lender to buy something he can’t afford – and probably doesn’t need.
Little Mouse, Big Cat and Rufus want every child to know more about the realities of borrowing money from a lender. Sure, credit cards seem great – who wouldn’t want to buy something really cool, even when the money’s not in hand? We all do! But somebody has to step in and talk about what happens after the money changes hands…and that’s just what Little Mouse is doing. Click on the link below to download a .pdf copy of the book.

To Lillian Reese,
I find your story inspirational to children, it is a good story to learn from on what to know about money and how money can effect you in certain ways. I think you have something special to share with our children and how they can learn for this story. Lillian Reese thank you for sharing this story with us, I wish you all the best in your future in writing children stories.
Bravo! Succinct, clear, informative. A story children need to learn early, a story adults need to be reminded of. The illustrations are worthy of the story line, and the story line, a compliment to the illustrations. They work in concert to make the subtle point. Each sentence is not wordy, or repetitive in content. The opening takes the reader where you want us to go, without being preachy; the end clarifies the result of Little Mouses’ journey. If writing is your calling, take that leap of Faith and put pen to paper. I’m a published writer, and when we learn that words are our friend, that proper grammar, punctuation and spelling are key ingredients to the message, and not fluff or afterthoughts, then the world is open to our own glorious expression. By the way, Derick Page is my son, and asked me to read and comment. It was my pleasure.
