CAROLE HINKLEMAN

Carole Hinkelman and Nan Rebik are senior citizens who worked collaboratively on line to develop these stories. Carole is a retired educator living in Brooklyn, New York and Nan lives in the southern California desert where she teaches music in the public schools and privately at home. Last summer, Nan's travel trailer was invaded by mice. While complaining about the problems caused by those mice, we decided to write the story of Herman the Horrible Trailer Mouse - a struggle between mice and humans. Herman is a mouse who enjoys the comforts of trailer living and easy access to gourmet dog food. We had so much fun writing that story that we continued with Herman and the Donkeys, The Midnight Trek, and Herman's Vacation.

HERMAN GOES JEEPING

Summer had arrived in the mountains. Herman and his family were enjoying life in their home in the woodpile next to the cook shack. One day, Herman, his grandfather George and son Harry went out exploring. They sneaked into the shed where the jeep from the cabin was stored. Climbing around, they discovered that the seats were stuffed with wonderful, soft filling.

The three mice filled their mouths with the soft filling and headed back to the woodpile This stuff is wonderful! Hester exclaimed. Please go and get some more and I will put it in each of our beds.

They had made several trips to the jeep and the hole in the seat was
