      What happens when you find a mouse in a Christmas cake? Read it and see. It's a cute children's book with illustrations reminiscent of a bygone era.
    • 3/5
      Cute little kid's christmas story about a mouse who make her home inside a christmas cake shaped like a castle.
    • 5/5
      I particularly enjoyed the language in which this story was written. The included illustrations were also very creative. I could almost imagine just exactly how a house full of people would react to a mouse jumping out of a Christmas cake, and this story did not disappoint.
