Horrace and Morris, But Mostly Dolores

Written by James Howe

Narrated by Jason Harris

Friends Forever!! At least it seemed that way for three little mice, until Horace and Morris become part of an exclusive boy’s club. Where does that leave poor Delores? She tries to be a part of a girl’s only club, but she doesn’t have fun and she misses the fellas. Soon, all three friends balk at these gender stereotypes that are keeping them apart! Bold artwork, charming characters, and a splendid telling combine in this lively protest against conformity that children will embrace!
