Mouse and Mole, A Winter Wonderland by Wong Herbert Yee Page B

thump, thump!
hopped Mouse
and Mole across the floor.

    Mouse took the teapot off the stove.
Mole fetched the cookie jar.

    Mouse sipped. Mole nibbled.
Mouse nibbled. Mole sipped.
Together they sat gazing
out the window.

    A snowflake drifted past.
Then another ... and another.
Outside, the oak tree was
trimmed with icicles;
the bushes frosted
like cupcakes.
Mole sighed. "It is truly
a
winter wonderland!
"
he exclaimed.
Mouse could not
help giggling.
