Charlie & Mouse: Lost and Found

Laurel Snyder and Emily Hughes

(Chronicle)– hardback

What do you do if you can’t find Blanket? That’s Mouse’s dilemma. Thank heaven for Charlie’s good advice, for he reminds his younger brother, that Blanket ‘is somewhere. He can’t be nowhere.‘ Thereafter, the pair look about the house and then into the yard. That’s when Charlie’s aware of something…

They’re both aware of the dog outside the store. Until that moment, errands at the post office and the bank are really dull. However, the possibility of a lost dog in need of a home changes everything. Furthermore, after waiting a long time, it seems the dog is definitely on its own. That’s when Mum suggests seeing if it comes to either Charlie’s or Mouse’s call. What name might it respond to?

These are the first two chapters of the latest addition to this award-winning series from Laurel Snyder and Emily Hughes. Charlie &  Mouse: Lost and Found offers familiar settings and a warm, relevant subject matter. For example, hasn’t ‘Everyone – always wanted a dog”  What’s more the precise storytelling alongside the inviting pictures of expert picture book illustrator Emily Hughes make this book, like Charlie & Mouse Outdoors, amongst others, is agreeably readable.
