In Snippy and Snappy, we are introduced to brother and sister field mice living with their mother and father in a cozy nook in a hay field. Their father enthralls them with stories about gardens in big fields, houses in big gardens, kitchen cupboards in big houses, and big yellow cheeses in big kitchen cupboards.<BR>One day Snippy and Snappy wander away from home while playing with their mother's yarn ball. Their journey takes them to a large house full of mysterious things, including cupboards full of wonderful-smelling cheese. Just as Snappy is about to nibble a piece of cheese in a mousetrap, their father jumps down to rescue them and lead them safely back home. Gag's delightfully detailed illustrations capture the coziness, wonder, and playfulness of Snippy and Snappy's adventures.
